About Cyberwip

“Cyberwip” is a unique word that means nothing but sounds like something. It could mean “Work In Progress” but nah, it means an intelligent person who does a lot of work on the web.

Yesterday, I posted a snide remark on my blog about the crap About Pages most people are writing, and claimed I could do better. So this is it – this is the best About Page I could create given that I have to get on with the rest of my life (and this website).

History

I’ve been hooked on technology since I built a crystal radio as a kid and had to get my dad’s help to get it working. My first serious job was in Research & Development at age sixteen before I even finished High School.

I’m not going to break down my achievements and accomplishments over the years because frankly, it would be boring and date me.. but I never messed up too badly, and generally feel good about what I’ve done.

My Goals

My goal, is to create a website for the purpose of sharing knowledge. I could brag for days about how great I am (just ask me!), but nothing gets the point across like a good example. If the site becomes a success and gets popular, it might turn out to be a good example. I would like that, so that’s my goal.

How I Intend to Achieve My Goals

I’ll be open and honest and try to stay on-track, focused on conveying information on technical topics as efficiently as I can. I’ll learn as we go, you’ll learn as we go,.. and we both benefit.

Specifically:

Apart from my copyrighted material, my work is 100% Open Source.
I’ll present topics on a Project basis, focusing on a single project at a time, starting with this website.
Along the way, I’ll blog about what I am doing and how I’m doing it. I invite feedback whether it’s comment, critisism, or ideas for improvement.
The first projects will be a random selection from the projects I’m working on now (no shortage). After that, lets see where we go.
The Contact Page makes it easy to contact me and every blog post has a comments section at the bottom where you can say something.
There are no ads on the website unless it’s talking about products we all use, or bragging about products I’ve tried, tested, and think are great. I don’t expect anyone to be using the site for monetary gain or they know what to expect (see Our Terms of Use).

My Target Audience

people like me who crave knowledge and especially about Science and Technology
people with knowledge who have done great things, and wish to share their experience
people who have time they don’t mind sharing with others.

If this sounds like you.. what are you waiting for, you are already a member, visit the blog and say hello.. and drop me a line through the Contact Page to say Hi!.
