IT changes. You've got your web site and email under control, and along comes FaceBook and Twitter. And MySpace, Orkut, Bebo, LinkedIn ...
I'm fascinated by the Internet - have been since my I got first 2400 baud modem - and it is both a job and a hobby. And even I have trouble keeping up with the ever changing ICT landscape.
I've been lucky enough to work in a lot of different environments - from large New Zealand corporates to an academic library in Cambodia - and to work with a lot of different software.
Systems and Network management, Content and Customer Relationship Management, Social Networking, Accounting, eCommerce, academic and general publishing systems, Learning Management Systems - the list goes on.
And my hobbies include reading about software, downloading and installing software, trying out software, and modifying and improving software. You'd never believe that some people consider me a geek.
Over the years, I've chosen the best Free and Open Source Software for particular purposes, and can now offer to install and support this software for business, NGO and educational use.
