+# 9front + UNIX
+The best of both worlds
+
+Like many people I use UNIX (Linux) for "real" work, but, unlike most, I use 9front all day everyday. This is thanks to the wonderful work by the 9front people's ssh system. Here are the tools I use:
+
+sshfs(1)
+vt(1)
+ssh(1)
+
+These tools give me full access to my UNIX system from my preffered os. Here's how it works:
+
+First I connect to my UNIX machine via sshfs:
+
+	sshfs fulton@tux
+
+This exposes all the files in my UNIX system's home dir under /n/ssh in my current namespace. Then I'll open my favorite editor acme with:
+
+	acme -l lib/work.dump
+
+This opens the editor with my saved work preset. Of course, I'll need to build things, so I use a vt(1) - A virtual UNIX terminal and ssh(1) to get a shell.
+
+	vt ssh fulton@tux
+
+This gives me a great lag free editing experience (the only time acme read or write from the server is saving files) in my favorite os, along with the build tools I need.
+
+To be honest, this is much better than what I had before no more juggling git commits to be able to move from desktop to laptop and no more laggy ssh vim instances.

+# A quick update
+
+Hey, Just a couple of quick updates. 
+
+My website is very different, with more changes to come. Why? Well I'm trying to get college recruiters interested in me and make a better website for all you nerds out there. 
+
+As part of this, my blog is now on the "big web". to do this I made a quick gemtext to html awk script.

+This was my first real use of awk, I quite enjoyed using it.
+
+In other news this server now mirrors 9front and seeds the 9front torrents

+
+I also saw this Wired article about a week back

+
+I really enjoyed it, you probably will too.
