Won-saiya!

🕐︎ - 2000-12-22

I've been using "asjo" since the BOFH at the university said: "I said it had to be at least FOUR letters" to me, when I handed in the sheet of paper that asked for the account "asj" to be assigned to me. Since 'ø' weren't allowed in logins, I couldn't come up with anything but "asjo" in those embarrasing seconds (not being able to count to four instills a stupid feeling in one...)

I'm not the only one who uses that four-letter word: As-jo engineering, Asjo's Consultancy.

asjo.com is registered and for sale while asjo.net and asjo.org seem to be unregistered... Should I get a second domain? Decisions, oh, the decisions! ;-)

How to in excruciating detail…

To avoid spam many websites make you fill out a CAPTCHA, or log in via an account at a corporation such as Twitter, Facebook, Google or even Microsoft GitHub.

I have chosen to use a more old school method of spam prevention.
