Just got my MA in philosophy from Heythrop College, University of London (also got a BA in philosophy, religion and ethics from the same college). In my spare time, I'm involved with developing software (mostly in Ruby and now Scala) to help make the Semantic Web a reality. My personal site is tommorris.org.
