About

Welcome. This is my slightly random corner of the internet.

I’ve worked with technology for most of my adult life, starting out writing software and gradually finding myself just as interested in the things around it: products, businesses, people, processes, why things work, why they don’t, and how seemingly difficult problems can often be made much simpler.

Over the years that has taken me through financial services, gaming, print, ecommerce, manufacturing and quite a few things that don’t fit neatly into any of those boxes. I still build software, but these days I’m just as likely to be thinking about a product, pulling apart a business process, spotting an opportunity, helping a team work something out or starting something new because I think it ought to exist.

A lot of that now happens through Jawwws, alongside things including Atomyx.io, Tiger Darts and various other products and ideas that have a habit of appearing along the way.

This blog is less organised.

Sometimes I write about technology or product development. Sometimes business, print, gaming, travel, something I’ve built, something I’ve fixed, or something I’ve noticed that sent me wandering… And I like to wander! There are old posts here too, some of which I’m slowly recovering from previous versions of the site. They’re part of the story, so I’d rather leave them as they were than pretend I thought the same way twenty years ago.

Mostly, this is somewhere to write things down when they interest me.

If there’s a common thread, it’s probably curiosity. I like understanding how things work, finding the bit that doesn’t quite make sense, and seeing whether there’s a better way to do it.
