About Me
An Open Source advocate (and occasional disruptor), I spend most of my spare time trying to think outside the box while tapping away at the keyboard connected TO the box.
I am always on the lookout for a new technology, methodolgy or cool way to get things done. As the Perl mongers say: “There is more than one way to do it” (TIMTOWTDI)
