Development
I have several years worth of a background in Information Technology work, although most of my software development and tech-savvy endeavors are strictly a hobby. Just about anything I do with technology is for my own enjoyment or for my work in finance and economics.

I am a huge advocate of wikis, especially MediaWiki. I have a blog where I share some of my philosophies on how wikis can enrich open source projects or commercial and non-profit documentation.
