Welcome to Almost Geek!  Pardon our dust while we sort things out and get up and running. Almost Geek is a long time in the making, I first bought the almostgeek.com domain a couple of years ago in an effort to keep the geekier posts off my personal blog but over time I got tired of maintaining several blogs and merged Almost Geek with my personal blog a few times.  The relaunch of Almost Geek is an attempt to share my knowledge of geek things and perhaps capitalize on it a little bit.

Let me introduce the Almost Geek: My name is Daniel Hutter, I go by Big Dan all around the internet. You can see my picture in the header and read my personal blog here.  I run several websites mostly centering around forums my most successful site so far is Our DJ Talk (ODJT) though I’m not completely responsible for it’s success I’ve had a lot of help from my co-administrators and moderators. I’m a big fan of making computing easier & more accessible, open source software, blogging, all three computing platforms (Windows, OS X, & Linux),  and community building and thus the posts here will be focused on those topics though most posts will probably but tutorials with plenty of screen shots to follow along.

Around here I follow a lot of geek, blogging, and marketing blogs such as Life Hacker, Pro Blogger, Mashable,  and Ars, it’s very possible that you will get some short posts with links to ultra cool stuff on them with a commentary from yours truly. I hope you enjoy the posts. Thanks for reading!
