I have previously edited using the IP address 88.97.48.225 (contribs). All edits from this IP address up to and including July 2011 are by me; later edits are mostly by others. My subsequent edits are from the PartTimeGnome account, except for the odd test of logged-out editing that I clearly note in my edit summary.

About me

[edit]

I am a software developer living in Stockport (UK). I previously worked in Winchester, and went to university at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth.

I have interests in computer programming, science fiction, anime and puzzles. I initially learnt computer programming on a Texas Instruments TI-99/4A home computer – which I still have in full working order!

Those who know me probably find my most notable features to be a colourful tie-dye T-shirt, a very loud alarm clock (no longer functional) and an "I'm strange" song I used to sing.

Projects

Technical stuff

[edit]

I do almost all of my editing from computers running Opera 12 on 64-bit Linux.

My Wikipedia preferences are set to use the Monobook skin. I edit with JavaScript disabled (for a multitude of reasons), so I don't use any user scripts. However, I have heavily customised my Wikipedia experience with custom CSS.

I have experience of programming in BASIC, Pascal, Turbo Assembler, Java, BASH shell scripting, C, C++, C#, PHP and Asterisk dial plan. I can pick up new languages fairly quickly.
