If you're so inclined, my blog is here
Some background: I'm interested in online communities, how they work and why they sometimes don't. This site is an experimental community. I started off with OYVAX.com, but the wwwthreads code was just too mad to continue hacking it.
This one is based on software called 'Novacaster' that's been designed to be an extremely flexible tool for managing virtual communities. Novacaster supports about 50,000 users as of August 2003, across a variety of websites. Mostly, these are large membership organisations who wanted a website with discussions and such without having to do it all themselves.
When I'm not mucking about with that sort of thing, I'm usually doing something either astronomically-based or related to researching ancient mythology in its various forms.
From time to time this all seems to me to be a far cry from getting a degree in Physics in 1985, but life's odd like that :-)
