Good Morning!

So here's a website, by and about me. My wife Alece and I are alumni of Americorps, and preceding that, Saint Mary's College of Maryland. That's interesting. We live in Seattle, Washington, which is really a fantastic city. We love Seattle plenty. My favorite bands these days are Sufjan Stevens, The Thermals, and Iron and Wine.

I work at Domain Tools. It's a really cool website if you like domains, check it out. I'm a programmer by profession but also for fun, whenever possible. Alece is steadily working towards a degree in Occupational Therapy at UW.

I update my my other blog a lot more frequently than I do this page, but that's not saying much. All the same, since I've got your attention, here are some facts: I definitely like computers, but not more than people. I'm a Pragmatic Humanist. I live in a small apartment that I love very much. I'm very proud of Alece and my family. I like being good at things, but I like too many things to get really, really good at anything. That doesn't bother me, though. Someday I'll get a master's in Generalist Studies or something.

I was raised on PCs but I really like using Macs now. I wouldn't say I've "switched" so much as gotten too lazy to deal with all the Windows baggage. I think that information should be kept as free and potent as possible and I really like Google for what they do. I am very interested in expert systems, assistive technology, neural networks, and human/computer interaction. And I hope One Laptop Per Child changes the global economy. My favorite non-profit organizations are Literacy Source, Free Geek, and The Heifer Project.

While you're here, you can take a look at my resume, check out some of my projects, or see what kind of games I'm into. Or, dig my awesome library. Have fun with all that!

Peace,
John
