From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Well, I first found wikis at The Great Original Wiki, the Portland Pattern Repository, at http://c2.com/cgi-bin/wiki?.

Naturally, I fell in love with wikis, and promptly started my own for (role-play) gaming purposes. I also introduced my ex-work to wikis, which they're still running, and I've managed to infect most of my friends with the wiki bug.

The main wiki I administer is http://wiki.angband.za.org/vorice/ - my friends & I detail our gaming world, the Vorician Empire, here.

I currently work full-time as a programmer while studying via correspondence for a BSc majoring in Computer Science & Mathematics. Hopefully I'll finish the degree in 2005, assuming I pass my final 3 modules.

My friends tell me that I'm annoyingly pedantic. I prefer to think of myself as precise. Besides, anal-retentive precision's a valuable tool when wiki'ing!
