1. Software & Internet Things.
I make software and internet things. I also write occasionally. Here are some of my favourite things I've made:
Software
- MobileDL — Remotely download files to your Mac through Simplenote,
- Throttle — A small Mac app that throttles your bandwidth,
- hn-api — A simple, ad-hoc API for Hacker News,
- hnsh — A command-line interface to Hacker News based on hn-api,
- Modulo — An iPhone web app that addresses the iPhone's native Calculator app's lack of a modulo operation,
- mdWidget — A Mac OS X Dashboard widget that gives you quick access to Markdown's syntax, &
- Shortcuts — bookmarklets that let you quickly view all of your browser's keyboard shortcuts.
Internet Things
- Mac Tees
- Kickstart Instead
- The Home Screen Project

2. About & Gear.
About
I'm finishing up a Software Design degree. I've worked in Python, Objective-C and Cocoa, Web Development (HTML (including HTML5), CSS, JS, jQuery), C, C++, and Java. I really like making things.
Gear
I have a computer and a phone and a tablet. You can probably guess which company made all three. When I'm not staring at a screen, I have a notebook and a pen.
