Welcome to the homepage of Sakari Pitkänen. This site is mainly in Swedish. It’s a place where I keep some of my writing and occasionaly blog. Articles and posts are mostly about media. I’ve translated one here to give you an idea of what I write about.
And here’s another one which probably is interesting only for people with limited WordPress skills, like me.
