Hello!

This is the home page of Colin M. Strickland.

I'm a software developer, from the U.K.

I've done lots of consultancy work, was an insignificant cog in the expanding machine back during the original dot-com boom(and bust), and I worked at the grand old Internet Movie Database for five years; you can blame me for the message boards. I then spent a while as an independent software developer, mixing up consultancy, Mac programming, and occasional contract work.

Nowadays, I'm working at Last.fm the awesome social scrobbling recommending profiling internet music thing.

My Gmail username is Colin dot Strickland. My super-real email account is my initials, at this very domain.
