As you can see, this page doesn't get a whole lot of attention. My blog is probably the most interesting thing to look at. I also have a FoaF file for RDF nuts.

Job

After being a student at UT-Austin for 4 years, I got a job at Google that starts in August. I'll be moving from Austin to California some time over the summer, which means that I have to find an apartment before that. Welcome to the real world.

Projects

These are a mix of things I've worked on and ideas for useful stuff.

Essays

These will change gradually as I get new ideas for each one. I don't have an easy way to give you diffs yet. Sorry about that.

Resume

Here's my resume. I'm not looking for a job at the moment, but the generation process is still neat.

For the developers among you, it's generated using an XML data file and a set of XSLT stylesheets that generate different mime types, currently including plain text, HTML, and XHTML.
