These pages are an attempt to shake off the bit-mould from the many software projects I have started, and mostly not finished over the years. Some of this stuff is very usable, some of it needs work.

I also hope to document some of the more interesting projects I've undertaken.

In additional to that it is an aide-mémoire to little bits of problem solving I frequently encounter day to day.

The Source code section provides downloadable source code to some of the software projects here. Where available binaries are also provided. A lot of projects I have coded over the years have been written in Borland Delphi, mainly because that is what I started using 20 years ago. 

From Tom Merritt's Chronology of Tech History

• On this day in 1959 - The first atomic reactor built in the US for medical research, achieved criticality at Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton, N.Y.
• On this day in 1985 - Symbolics, a Massachusetts computer company, registered the Internets first commercial domain name, symbolics.com. An investment company who uses it as a marketing device now owns the domain. The remains of the original Symbolics Company survives in altered form at symbolics-dks.com.
• On this day in 2004 - Nicolas Jacobsen posted to a forum that he had hacked into T-Mobiles network and stolen information from major celebrities like Paris Hilton. Jacobsen was later charged with two counts of violating the US Computer Fraud and Abuse Act.
