About Me

This is a recent (March 2006) photo of me. I don't normally look this sombre - it was a photo for a national newspaper so I was trying my best to look business-like. The photo appeared in the March 30th edition of the Irish Times newspaper in the business section. That's why I'm pictured next to my Laptop and mobile phone. All photo-ops involving web entrepreneurs (that's me) must include said entrepreneur's laptop and/or mobile phone - I think it's some kind of Tech Journalism Law. You can click on the thumbnail to see a larger version of the photo. March 30th 2006 was also the date my son Sean was born which is kind of weird - having your 15 minutes of fame and a half-page feature in the national newspaper on the day your son is born.

I have a beautiful Wife (Ursula) and Daughter (Kate), both of whom I'm very proud of. I'm the founder & CEO of a company, and I love making stuff with software. I used to have a personal blog but gave it up, and now keep a company blog. I like making a living from software but have been known to make one or two small contributions to Open Source.

I'm signed up to a couple of social networks ...
