[edit] Hobbies & Pastimes

I enjoy computer games, program writing, reading, learning (most things), networking, writing for Wikipedia and others. I am currently learning Esperanto for no apparent reason, am helping to write documentation for two open-source projects, and am developing UI for another.

[edit] Location

I live in the United Kingdom and have recently become disgusted by its USA-lapdog-style fascisms, destroying our freedom of speech and civil liberties in the name of warding off a non-existent terrorist threat. For that reason I would like to move to Finland whose society, economy and politics suit me far better.

[edit] Politics

My political orientation is leftish, manifesting itself in my support of socialism, free software and other communal projects. Occasionally I support the Tories on a particular issue, but usually because they are only slagging off New Labour, which is moving so far to the right that the Tories are having to move up. I would vote Lib Dem or Old Labour if I were old enough.

[edit] Hatred

I hate George Bush, stupidity, Xorg, KDE, GTK, chavs and illogicality.

[edit] Wikipedia work

I do major work in copyediting and psychological-response-to-design-tweaking work for Wikipedia and Wikinews in English. I also do the occasional French translation, because I know enough French to correct Google Language Tools' horrid mistakes.
