I'm Peninkcillin, a regular guy living in the midwest of the United States.
I am eternally fascinated by technology, but I like to balance that with an interest in analog hobbies. Fountain pens and inks played an important role in my early childhood, and I've carried this love to today.
Peninkcillin was originally hosted at peninkcillin.blogspot.com. I have abandoned the hobby for many years (although I've continued using fountain pens), and in 2024 I had a renewed spark of interest.
Now, the site is rebuilt on a new engine and hosted on its own domain, here at peninkcillin.com.
If you are curious how it's built, now that it is no longer hosted on Blogger, I used a static site engine called Jigsaw which is itself built on the popular PHP framework Laravel.
THIS SHOULD BE A BLOGPOST
I was already mulling over the idea of rebuilding the website somehow, but I wasn't sure how. Almost on a lark, I decided to check if the peninkcillin.com domain was available. On one hand, "peninkcillin" is an obscure, made-up word. On the other, there aren't many good .com domains left these days, and I thought there's a good chance some squatter would have poached it a long time ago.
Lo and behold, the domain was still available and I didn't hesitate too long in buying it.
