Not really here anymore (for the most part). Wikipedia is more of a service than something to which I actively contribute. I find coding for an open-source project (i.e., Drupal) to be more fulfilling (I am EvanDonovan on Drupal.org.
I used to keep a blog at donovan.covblogs.com. These days, I am mostly on Facebook. Also, you may reach me in my capacity as Online Publications Editor for TechMission at www.urbanministry.org/user/evandonovan.
