Random nonsense

My entry in Steve's Hakkliha Remix Competition. No, I can't sing. But I can sure make a ukulele sound like an electric guitar!

My Doodle gallery, mostly from the margins of class notes ten years ago.

Before I started working for Panic, I played around with Flash a lot. I started two open source projects: Ming, a library for creating SWF files, and Flirt, an SWF rendering library. Ming has been relatively successful, as open source projects go—I even did a successful hand-off to another developer, so I don't have to feel guilty about bugs. Flirt suffered the fate of 99% of open source projects: I didn't get it feature complete before I decided I didn't have enough time for it, and nobody has shown up to pick it back off the floor. It was fun, but not enough fun to not get paid for it.

i wrote fan mail to Panic a year or two ago, and i think you wrote back. but of course, i didn't know that Dave at Panic was Dave of Ming (who was also Dave of Teleport).

we've got to stop meeting like this. people will start to talk.

i love Portland.
