I started blogging in 1997, back when it wasn’t widely known as “blogging”. I’ve used this web address over the past nearly 15 years for various things, and did a full reset in 2001 after a failed migration attempt from Radio Userland to WordPress. The wreckage is scattered about this server here and there; maybe someday I’ll get around to grepping it and putting everything back together again for my own amusement.

Here’s what you need to know about me:
I live in Baltimore, and have since 1990. I am married, with three kids.
I’m a technology journalist by profession and addiction, and an occasional web hacker, coder, sysadmin, and tech jack-of-all-trades.
I am an ex-Navy officer. That experience has colored my view of many things. Often not in the way you would expect.
Currently, I’m a freelancer. I have worked for a number of publishers, and have written for many print and electronic publications. Google me.
