My name is Yoshihiro ASHIHARA, male, middle age, middle class Japanese, living in Koishikawa, Tokyo. "broom" is my screen name and my birthday's flower (or birthday's grass?). Please refer to my avatar photo.
I'm a government official. As Japanese officials' usual cases, I worked in several kinds of areas, including FTA negotiation, Financial inspection, Public affairs on food safety, Compilation and analysis of Economic indicators, Regional project management and so on. So, I have lower-professional/upper-amateur knowledges and skills on such areas. And I have an experience of working in EUROSTAT for six months, with studying quarterly SNA compilation, especially on IP and GFCF.
From 1999, I'm self-managing my domain (hurusato.org) with Linux. So, I have some knowledge on Linux (old RHL, OpenBSD, Fedora and openSUSE) and some on PHP, Ruby, Python and SQL. And I'm an avid reader for books news and blogs. My motto is as follows: humani nil a me alienum puto (Terentius, please google!)
Two years ago, I had my blog on my server(www.hurusato.org) with Wordpress 2.0. Wordpress itself was a fine system, but I saw that such system does not fit for my casual writing style. Now, Posterous looks good for me.
On this new blog site, I'd like to aggregate my memos (thoughts for current events, book reviews, etc.), photos and captures from my surroundings. I hope those will have some value for all. Thanks.
