A long time ago I was a Computer Science student at UMBC. I then moved to Cambridge and completed the two year Masters program in Technology and Policy at MIT. After a brief time as a consultant in New York City I returned to the MIT Lab for Computer Science as a W3C/IETF Working Group chair and editor. I was also a Berkman Center Fellow at the Harvard Law School. (Or as MIT folk say, the "other school up the river.") After almost a decade in Cambridge, I left for New York again to articulate and contextualize my experience with new media and collaborative communities. I concluded my work at NYU with a doctoral dissertation on the collaborative culture of Wikipedia.
I live in Brooklyn, but like to travel -- I'm particularly fond of Sydney and Tokyo, and I love to visit the waterfalls of wherever I go. I have the standard geeky interests: photography, zines, and haiku. If you want to send an email you can even use my PGP key.
In addition to the publications in my curriculum vitae, you can also read my research blog. If you are really bored, you could beck out my work from Harvard, Wikipedia drafts, older student work from MIT and UMBC, including ecommerce writings, and over a decade's worth of photos and writing on the Web.
