Introduction
[edit]Hi all!
My name is Shlomi Fish, and I'm an Israeli writer (of creative stories and screenplays, aphorisms and quotes, articles and essays, lectures, blog entries or comments and web content), a professional software developer (of open source software or otherwise), and also an amateur mathematician, and an even more amateur artist. Lately, I've started seeing myself as an Internet-based entertainer/amateur-philosopher/etc. similar to the fact that during Hellenistic times, philosophy was considered a form of entertainment. I'm also active in promoting and advocating various Open Source and Open Content technologies and resources in Israel and on the Internet.
My home-site is maintained by me, and contains many things I've written and placed online, as well as links to other sites or places I've created. A Duck Duck Go search on my name or a a Google Search will also yield many useful links (as are similar searches like those for "shlomif").
