DeRailed - Just an ego trip really

DeRailed is a site about Darren Lester, written by Darren Lester. This is a pointless paragraph that you won't see anyway, unless you're viewing my source... And why would you want to do that? Perhaps you're a muppet? Anyway, in order to index better, this paragraph involves saying the keywords Darren and Lester many, many times. That should do it!

When I grow up, I want to be bigger

This site is completely pointless.

Just about anything important that I have to say can be found at Just Too Good, my PC Resource. JTG is an information resouce, aimed at both newbies and geeky technophiles alike. Thus, whether you're relatively new to PCs or an experienced user who's in need of some specialist knowledge, then this is the place to go. JTG also hosts an ever more popular technology forum where visitors can post questions and take part in IT debates.

So why does DeRailed exist? No reason at all, really. I created it in the late 90s (so, er, very old now), in the days when it was cool to write personal web sites about nothing in particular. "Hi, this is me, and here's some pictures of my pet turtle..." (No, I don't own a turtle. Never have.)

The site used to also have links to my (always out-of-date) CV. Well, that's gone, because what's the point in having to constantly tell recruiters that I'm not interested, given that I'm not actually looking for another job?

This site also used to have a summary of some of things I enjoyed... WHEN I WAS A TEENAGER. In order to circumvent any assumptions that I do the same stuff now, years later on, I figured that had to go too.
