This blog is written by Peter Bhat Harkins, a web developer and entrepreneur in Chicago. The recurring themes on this blog include programming minutia, long-term travel, the ways small design changes influence user behavior, and game design. Feel free to contact me or check out some code on GitHub.
In my career, I've re-engineered the .pro domain, gate-crashed a stealth startup, built one of the most popular Wordpress plugins, covered dozens of stories for WashingtonPost.com, defeated the original Super Mario Kart, alphabetized the bible, and written a roguelike.
If you play any tabletop games (like D&D, Magic, and Settlers), visit my site NearbyGamers to find folks to game with.
I also post a lot of stories on Lobste.rs.
