Dave Gauer

Howdy, I’m Dave Gauer. I’ve worked in web technologies since the late 1990s. Some interests: computer programming of all kinds, Linux/BSD/Unix, art, books (genre fiction, computing, history, biographies, art monographs), film, music (metal!), boardgames, and watching small creatures in the back yard.
