There&#39;s a certain indescribable thrill I get by taking something and making it do more with less.  I assume that&#39;s, in big part, a reason why I eventually became a software engineer.  Much of the job is experimenting and researching ways to make software faster and more efficient.  When I&#39;m not working on a computer I sit in front of one reading up on personal finance topics that apply to the &quot;average Joe.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Efficiency is beneficial in everyday life.  Efficiency saves you time and money, so that you can spend your time (and money) doing things you enjoy.  This blog will be a combination of ramblings from the things in life I enjoy most making more efficient: personal finance, software, and general life style.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4507573350834696098/posts/default/6657880447424837223'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4507573350834696098/posts/default/6657880447424837223'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://efficacyofefficiency.blogspot.com/2009/08/welcome.html' title='Welcome'/><author><name>BabblingBehr</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16701230911258784271</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry></feed>
