–The old about page that I’m going to rewrite very soon.
Furgelnod’s Fyrgilnadium – It’s a place for all the work of Toby Johnston AKA Furgelnod to reside, a fyrgilnadium if you like.
Though I tend to cover a variety of topics on this, my fyrgilnadium. My main focuses and points of enjoyment are history and assorted scripts particularly useful batch files, yes I do hear you going ewh batch files! That said I also have, over some time, enjoyed a variety of art styles which I post and music which I occasionally write and record. Not to mention any opinionated reviews that I post.
I hope that the site appeals to a wide audience including, those looking for opinions on various things, those looking for tech help, people with an interest in history and anyone else who might think that what I write is at least mildly interesting.
In reading my articles I hope you get, if you don’t already have, an interest in history (and understand its not all about facts), help with your ICT problems, and an understanding of my opinions on the variety of topics I cover.
Well that said who am I, and why should you be reading my fyrgilnadium?
Well let’s start by me introducing myself to you. I’m Toby Johnston and on the internet I often go by the name of Furgelnod. I’m currently undertaking a liberal arts degree, majoring in history and sociology. It’s from this that I take my enthusiasm for history and for academia more roundly. I’m a little mad about the use of proper English, in particular of traditional British English, and am profoundly against the encroaching of US English into Australian English. I am an avid computer fan and for a long time have been using them for a variety of practical, and not so practical, uses. I live in the wonderful island state of Tasmania, in the overwhelmingly dangerous (just kidding) Commonwealth of Australia.
