Who am I? Lincoln, computer scientist, internet denizen. I work for Demiurge Studios, a Boston game developer. I'll tell you more, but you'll need to contact me somehow. If you would like to send me email, I have many addresses -- the most convenient is probably simply my first name at techhouse.org (which also works via XMPP/Jabber). Other contact information can be found through talking with my friends or doing a bit of digging. :)
For more information, check my blog here. I update it when I get the urge (i.e., rarely), and I occasionally write about entrepreneurship, technology, programming languages, and software engineering.
I'm not looking for a job now, but I have a resume available, if that's your thing. This is xhtml+css format for screen display, generated from xml source via XSLT processing [source]. A sane and rational person might ask why? and I can't blame them. I wanted to learn XSLT; I wanted to programmatically remove my contact info (to annoy harvesters); and for a short while I thought I might automatically generate a LaTeX version. (That idea had a short and painful life.)
I made Newsbrane, a now-defunct news site which learned your personal tastes in news. It was a lot of fun to work on, and I look forward to starting another company someday.
I use Ubuntu and Mac OS X on my home computer. (My work computer runs Windows, somewhat to my dismay, although I really appreciate the power of Visual Studio.) I love my Kinesis contoured keyboards (I have one at home and one at work). I use regular office chairs, except I take the arms off. I use vim to edit most text; I use ViEmu with Visual Studio at work.
I am a big fan of these projects: Ubuntu, Haskell, LLVM. Someday I hope to contribute!
I browse the Web with JavaScript disabled. (Actually, technically I use NoScript). This is partially for security reasons (nearly all modern Web exploits require JavaScript). However, it's also to help improve the Web. When a page that I want to visit requires JavaScript, I notice right away. If I still want to see the page, I can temporarily enable it for that site, but most of the time I just click "Back". Occasionally I email the site designers and ask them to think about how their site works with Javascript disabled. Thus, for my sake, and the sake of accessibility, think hard when you make JavaScript required for sites you create!

Below is the section of my page where I put words and phrases for Google to find:

Always a great day to Bite. (still unique 2010-02-22; this one is from Facebook app development)
