chasing the blog bandwagon

Been intending to do this for ages. Until now, I haven't made time to scrape together the pieces needed. Due to my paranoid control freakish leanings, I won't use one of the free blogging sites. I'd rather stay more in control of how this gets used. Or unused.

I just came across this blog script at blosxom.com, and it looked simple enough to try. So here we are.

Introduction? I'm Steve. Middle-aged geek of the computing persuasion. Here's a picture of me (lower photo, on the right) a couple years ago when I was working with my bro Jeff and friends to build an ISP network into rural Winthrop WA. Jeff and Maria still run the network, and I still help out on the side (wearing my network engineer hat). Nine months ago, I returned fulltime to my primary career, programming. I'm now writing applications to run mostly on cell phones, for UIEvolution in Bellevue, WA. (Java and C++, in case you're interested.)

On the home front, been married to Fon Wen for alarmingly close to twenty years. (That used to sound like longer.) We raise our daughters, Lia and Ursula at our home on Bainbridge Island.
