Joy in the morning

The Sun is rising again

Emacs is starting

-Ryo

“Silence is better than unmeaning words.” -Pythagoras

I'm a blogger, netcaster, citizen journalist, vegan Android-expert, astronomy-fan, anime-sensei & geocaching-pro.

The most urgent question: “What does Ryo mean?” – It's a Japanese forename and is spoken [ri:o] roughly like in “Rio de Janeiro”

Hey, you want to know more about me? Here you go:

I am running a few private websites and netcast shows (a.k.a. podcasts), and working at different places on the web to support free software, new ways to communicate and modern journalism. I'm not a member of any political party. I used to be an active member of an astronomical observatory, and of the “Planetary Society / S.E.T.I.”, for several years. Always searching for the next new technology to overtake.
