About Me

  1. I work as a freelance desiger, and there’s plenty more about that over here.
  2. Speaking at conferences is something I look forward to doing more of. God knows I’ve got enough opinions about the web.
  3. I’ve been playing with computers since 1980, and online since 1991, when I got my first email account at university.
  4. I studied painting & design at Virginia Commonwealth University, and helped found the virtual reality lab there back in 1992.
  5. I blog here about design, but also write over at /message about social tools and how to make them better.
  6. My second passion is photography. I own at least seven cameras, almost always have one with me, and documented a year of my life one polaroid at a time on Polaroidiary.
  7. I’ve got two passports, one American and one Australian, since I was born in Washington D.C. but grew up in Canberra.
  8. I’m bi-lingual, against all of my expectations. I’d have to be pretty damned lazy to have lived in Hamburg Germany over 10 years and not learned the language.
  9. I’ve moved so many times I almost don’t know what roots are, but since October 2008 I’ve been sinking some into the soil in Sydney.
  10. Every day I’m surprised by how difficult to use so many web sites are, and how easy it would be to improve them.
