Websites

A list of web pages I created. (currently off-line).

Interactive Communication

If you like to interactive communicate with me, I strongly suggest you to phone me. However, there are a few other options at your disposal:

If you still use talk, IRC, Hotline, Carracho: don't bother. I'm not using those protocols or software anymore.

I gladly receive signed or even encrypted mail. My PGP public key is B804CF07, with fingerprint AE23 7158 C1D0 F7C9 2641 C42F 567C 3C2D B804 CF07. You can retrieve the key from most key servers.

Finally a warning: if you sent email to a non-email addresses, like the above or to ISpamThereforIAm@macfreek.nl, you will automatically be added to a spam black-list. So only use these screen names if you know what they mean.

Social Networks

If you once knew me, and got out of touch: nice to see you around. Feel free to drop me an e-mail. I appreciate it!

Beside the PGP "web of trust", I created a profile to a few social networks: FOAF (inline), XFN (inline), LinkedIn, Orkut (I've skipped on Hyves, Friendster, and MySpace). However, I rather maintain a list of friends myself instead of outsourcing friendships, thankyouverymuch), so I do not regularly maintain those pages and even have a light aversion against being called "friend" by people I don't know up close. That said, there are more kinds of relations, and I surely appreciate if you take the time to get to know me better. The first thing you learn is that I spent plenty of time in front of a computer already, so why don't you be a true friend and call me in real life?
