Purpose
Why are you here? Why is this here?
For a number of reasons really. One, I was bored. Two, I thought you might be looking to find out more about me. Three, I found the sociological ramifications of the personal aspects of the internet fascinating. Many people search the internet to find out about others. The idea of "Googling" random people to see what random information can be found about a person buried deep in the internet is common. You can really tell a lot about a person by what comes up. So I figured, why make people go searching? What if I could pull all that information about one person into one place, and then present that to see what picture can be painted of the subject? Why shouldn't that person be me?
So I searched and gathered for any direct reference to myself that I could find. Some items are written or created by me. Others are posted online by others. Some are intentional presentations of my ideas, and others appear to be routine daily transactions. But my theory is that the sum of all the parts presented should actually present a realistic picture of who I am. Balancing the boasting comments with the candid remarks should allow for an unbiased image. Or so I propose.
One last thing. While I consider this to be a complete listing of all references to myself, my research was flawed in that I did it. I may not have considered every source, and I may fail to remember to post some new links. Should you find a reference, please leave it in the comments, so that you can leave this database more complete for those who follow.
Thanks again, and enjoy your stay.
