Welcome

Welcome to my web site!

My name's Cezary Morga and I'm an aspiring system administrator working with *BSD and GNU/Linux operating systems, learning his way through (Open)Solaris--I'm a Sun Certified System Administrator for the Solaris Operating System (SCSA).

I'm quite active on the Internet, so you can:

• follow my activities through my FriendFeed profile;
• find some of the pictures I've taken at Picasa Web Albums;
• check what I'm listening to at last.fm and Rate Your Music;
• see what I'm currently reading at GoodReads;
• check what code I've recently written at Ohloh
  and my CPAN profile (I'm not a programmer, you have been warned);
• browse my bookmarks at Delicious;
• view my profile on LinkedIn.

Oh, and while we're at it, why don't you check out my blog at ITtoolbox or the other one called Progressive Savage?

How to reach me

In my day-to-day activity I'm using two e-mail addresses for different needs:

• cm@therek.net for more or less personal correspondence,
• cezary@morga.net.pl for more official one.

If you're experiencing problems contacting me via these addresses, it may be because of a greylisting technique I'm using to protect myself from spam. If so, read deeply into the bounce mail you received, and use some RFC compliant mail server.

When it comes to instant messanging I--although rarely--use following:

• XMPP (Jabber): cm@jabster.pl
