Here's a link to my ``serious'' home page, in case personal details aren't what you're after.

I've just added a list of Things I Like. I like to read other people's similar lists. I think they help to build a feeling of community. How? If someone has an interest in a little known, but amazingly good artist (like J. J. Cale or Taj Mahal), or movie (Delicatessen comes to mind), they might search for them with Alta Vista, and find a number of other like-minded people. Maybe even people they already knew, but didn't know they shared an interest.

Heidi and I recently returned from a trip to Italy (mainly Florence) to visit my sister-in-law Lisa and her husband Patrick. Here's a picture of us in Venice.

My interests include electronics (mainly audio), unit origami, cycling, hacking at school, rock climbing, ultimate frisbee and cross-country skiing. I'm also a Dvorak keyboard advocate. Some of my friends say I'm nuts because I enjoy hacking PostScript.

I like chocolate. These cookies have enough of it.

I lost a bet involving a flow-bee. You can see the event if you're at all interested. ``Thanks'' to Ted Romer for documenting this (in)auspicious event.

My officemates are Stefan Savage, Mike Feeley, prZemyslaw pardyAK, Ashutosh Tiwary, and famous post-docs Wilson Hsieh, and Herve Jamrozik. We work in Sieg Hall, which is purportedly the ugliest building on campus.

My wife, partner and best friend is Heidi, a really neat (non-CS) person. She enjoys gardening, reading and cycling, but doesn't have enough time to do these things since she works for Starbucks coffee. She is the ``coffee and beverage specialist'' for Starbucks' research and development department.

A note about this page:
I built this page on my Macintosh using Claris'
neat tool called Home Page. You can try it too. I formatted this in about 20 minutes. It's just a big table. Very slick interface. I found out about Home Page on the EvangeList.
