… a rather regular college student for all practical purposes. He is a writer, musician and sketch artist during the day. The darker side of him loves designing, web-developing and thinking up answers to life (he’s not convinced it is really 42) at night. When he is not doing either of the above things or talking about himself in the third-person, he is either sleeping or eating. He is a Computer Engineering major, with decent grades. He is not a nerd. Speak to him for 10 minutes, you’ll find out why.

Fairly reserved and a little bit of an introvert, he is a misanthrope with hints of narcissism who prefers his own company. He likes to unwind by reading the news, his feed updates, and tinkering with templates and cron jobs here and there. Throughout the ordeal, his trusty headphones are always playing heavy/hard rock. His favourite bands are Threat Signal, Pink Floyd, Guns ‘N Roses, Wolfmother and Limp Bizkit among others.

He has been web-teching since ‘04, when he got his second ever computer. His blogging days started with Blogger in ‘05, and after coming up with many blogger-hacks, finally made the jump to Wordpress in ‘07. He has written three Facebook applications till date, many user-scripts, a few Wordpress plug-ins, and co-developed an awesome Twitter app. He is fluent with PHP, C++, Javascript and (thanks to college) assembly language for the x86 processor family.

He is operating system agnostic, but uses a Mac, because it’s just better than the alternatives. An avid follower of Apple, Twitter and Google, he believes that we are truly blessed to have been born in the same era as Steve Jobs, the greatest modern age visionary. And yes, he also is anti-Microsoft.
