So I'm screwing around with the idea of creating a technical web site. One thing that has really come at a surprise is how difficult math is to represent online. I'm currently using mimetex, and it does a little better then poor. For example, if you write about the definition of a limit in calculus, mimetex is unable to display error ε or distance δ. So I'm pretty much limited to ASCII characters for variables. When I have to use epsilon or delta, I have to use them directly into the page. Ultra annoying stuff... Has anyone ever ran into this problem and have any solutions? I could in theory ask my host to setup a full latex system, but I think they would likely say no. I'll probably have to go to a cloud host to use full latex. Maybe run a full latex system on a local machine?

Anyway, after I get the kinks out of the system, I may start writing some articles on programming. I was thinking about writing more about data structures and web programming than anything. Perhaps I could also write about how to use 3rd party open source libraries like gmp from visual basic. But If I'm not mistaken, Microsoft is going to include a big number class in their next update of visual basic, so maybe gmp would not be worth while.

Anyway, does anyone have any suggestions on things to write about?
