used WardsWiki links - FindPage - SearchHelper - RecentChanges

My interests are sort of being compiled/collected on my del.icio.us pages and on stumbleupon. Otherwise, theres an almost functioning weblog at http://blog.jaysenn.com. and a public wiki at http://jaysen.wikispaces.com/

Currently working as a software developer for a small company in Johannesburg, South Africa. I prefer working in Python, C# and Java.

Current Projects

A UniversalTagBrowser?? .. to access all my Tags across several apps and services in one place.
Plugins and customizations of WikidPad - including a few for GettingThingsDone, and for using the TagMetaphor? within the wiki, and CombiningTagsAndCategories??
a SokobanPuzzleGenerator? using EvolutionaryAlgorithms to select for small, hard puzzles.
and other, much less interesting things necessary to pay for survival ..

Notes and Other Pages

OpenGovernment - notes from an old blogpost..
AdUnBlockCommunities - consumer activism, and fund raising using adblock in the negative.

Other spaces

Interesting...

Other things I'm inclined to make a noise about at the moment:

FreeCulture, and CopyLeft
The WikiWay
OpenSource and the CooperativeStrategy? / CommunityOwnership? / ??? - true sharing of resources, information, and even production.

Leave a note here if you want to say something to me...

Jaysen, have you had more progress in a PocketPc version of OpenSource FreeSoftware PersonalWiki that is better than WikidPad? Please respond in WikiOnPda page if you have more info. -- David 20Apr05

Not yet, unfortunately. WikidPad is OpenSource now tho... so maybe it's time to start trying bits of wiki Python code on PythonCE -- JN -- i'm not really looking for anything quite as feature rich (or as good:) as wikidpad. --JN
