"Science is like sex, something good might come of it, but that's not why I'm doing it"

Richard Feynman, Nobel Physicist

Here's some publicly viewable examples of my work:

	A holiday accommodation booking site for a charming Blue Mountains home
	A database backed website for the Gang-Gangs bush band
	Late in 1999 I was sent to the outback of Australia to launch a new mobile satellite unit - while out there I became the worlds most remote telecommuter
	The Australian press ran a few stories about it
	and shortly afterwards I was sent to Nepal
	I designed and wrote an online music store: Stairway to Kevin
	and sat a few exams at Brainbench
	A history of maritime telegraphy (morse) in Australia
	A site for the Blue Mountains birdwatchers

Visitor:	metaphorically the Brainbench bit was a bit over the top
Shaggy:	the exams at www.brainbench.com provide a good method for comparing yourself with your peers. Exam results are given as a mark and adjusted percentile against everyone else who took the exam. Also, Brainbench certifications are recognized at many Fortune 100 organizations, including Ernst & Young, EDS, and Price Waterhouse Coopers.
Visitor:	I'm impressed at any site that encouraged a visitor to use the words "metaphorically" and "brainbench" in the same comment.
Shaggy:	Yeah, I would have preferred ineffable (or even brilliant), but "metaphorically" and "brainbench" will do :-)
