Blog Reference Map

I often use my own blog as a reference for common tasks - that's part of the reason why I post things in the first place - and to share with the Oracle community.

So when I read Why every blogger should create resource pages and saw some of examples from people such as thatjeffsmith, I thought I'd draft this up, over time update my older posts with references to related content and generally clean things up. I'll try to keep it up-to-date, too - but no promises. Maybe translate into contemporary menu, too.

I also post a lot about AUSOUG, science & other stuff, so this is a great way to trim the fat and cut right to the technical stuff.

I don't think it's complete - I'll try to keep it up to date and maybe pretty it up a little.
As a guide, those marked -- recent were added since the last time I last updated this page (Jan 2014).

Note April 2021 - I plan to replace this page with something more... useful.
