main bit This page looks very fancy in a modern browser, with "stylesheets" and "layout" and thing, but frankly I prefer the way you're seeing it here. Congratulations for not crumbling to the Browser Upgrade Initiative! Support the Web Designer Downgrade Conclusion!

the book

"Well, I don't work alone. There's a lot of stuff in there I don't even understand. I'm really a systems management man. I farm bits and pieces out to guys who are much more brilliant than I am.

If you'd like to use these news pieces at your own site, send me a mail. Obviously, first English rights have rather gone by the wayside here, but I'll be happy to replace my draft copy with a link to your news service. If you'd like to employ me as a stringer, we should talk (my "Foreign News Media" visa prevents me from working for US-based companies, but if you're based in Europe or, say, the Cayman Islands, we should be okay).

If you're a professional editor, please let me know how I'm doing. I'm currently the Silicon Valley columnist for the Irish Times and the London Sunday Times. More idiosyncratic, investigative pieces you can find at my newsletter site, NTK. You can find out more about me from my homepage
