I came across Wikipedia via a websearch and am fascinated by it. I have always been one who likes to organize and categorize information, partly I believe because I'm not smart enough to comphrend things unless they are nicely organized! But seriously, I think my brain just goes into pattern matching mode all the time. You can see this categorization of information at my company's two main websites, referenced in the next paragraph.
I am founder and former president of Xtras, Inc. which has product lines Xtras.Net featuring components and tools for Microsoft-centric developers including Microsoft .NET and VB.COM.
My current company is Guides, Inc. which is a partner marketing consultancy and internet publishing company.
I also ride motorcycles and have developed several pages about motorcycles on my personal website.
[edit] Interests for Wikipedia
- Programming in Microsoft .NET and 3rd party components.
- Motorcycles

My interests change over time, so I'll add more "interests" as they come to me.
