I am a software developer based in the UK with a degree in philosophy and religion from the University of London. I am interested in both technology and philosophical issues. I also run GetSemantic.com, a wiki for covering Semantic Web technology. I have a blog at [http://tommorris.org tommorris.org]

I'm based near London, and am interested in organising Citizendium London meetups, possibly '''Research Days''', where - maybe with the institutional blessing of academic or research libraries, we descend as a group, and collaboratively work on articles for a day. I'm interested in hearing from anyone who's interested in such a possibility, and academic or research libraries who would be willing to let a bunch of Citizendium authors in to read your books.
