It's a great keyboard, but I apparently prefer short-throw switches, so MX Browns weren't my cup of tea. Those speakers though. LOVE them.)

Hobbies

Backloggery.com: I play games. That's a link to pretty much everything I do that's related to gaming. It has lists of all the games I own, what I think of each of them, what systems I own, what my Steam/Xbox Live/PSN/etc. usernames are, and a whole lot more. Do yourself a favor and sign up there, since the community and site are awesome.

MyAnimeList.net: I used to watch a lot of anime. These days, I don't watch as much, but here's a link to everything I've seen.

I dabble in coding on the side for fun. Check my userscripts for some examples of coding I've done for fun within the scope of UD.

Personal Templates

These are all personal use templates my userspace relies on. You are strongly advised NOT to include these templates in your own pages since they could change at any time and break your pages. Nonetheless, I list them here so that I have easy access to them later in case I need to have a quick reference.
