What I'm doing now... |
Catching up on the talks from Wikimania. Some interesting stuff.
Currently (August 7) indulging my Wikiholism for a few days, before I get onto doing the boring stuff I need to do (taxes, passport, sorting through all my crap...) I love the way the internet facilitates collaboration, and I'm quite involved in several collaborations, as you can see in the box on the left. |
Plans |
Sometime in the second half of 2006 I'm heading to Asia on a one-way ticket. I'll visit and learn from development projects, gain experience and use it (perhaps) for a career, and (definitely) to share via Appropedia and Wikipedia. Partly, though, it's a lifestyle thing - I don't enjoy living in Australia, and long to get back to Indonesia, and explore other countries as well, broadening my horizons. |
To help pay my way, I have 3 options:
If and when I do English language teaching, I plan to collaborate on lesson planning, using Wikibooks, Dave's ESL Cafe, and perhaps The Teachers' Lounge and TeachForward (not running yet). |
Contact |
I don't put my email on here, as I want to avoid spam... likewise I don't put my chat usernames here as a whole word - you'll have to do some simple decoding...
You can contact me:
I also like IRC chat... but you'll need to contact me first to arrange a channel. I plan to spend a bit of time on the wiki-related IRC channels occasionally (e.g. #wikipedia & #wikimedia on irc.freenode.net). |
