Voracious reader, armchair historian, noted pedestrian, eccentric wiki editor, thrift privateer, cultural detective, curious antiquary, chef blogger, open source advocate, fusspot.
I am an avid reader of books. I especially enjoy History, Literature, and Mysteries. I have an ambition to spend a year reading nothing but the Penguin Classics. I want to understand what happened and why. I try and take what I learn from reading about other times and cultures and use it to help make sense of things going on today.
I am interested in open source and collaborative software. I am using Linux and exploring it's many distros on my home pcs. I am also looking to collaborate on open source, centralized social networking and microblogging platforms.
