Hi! Welcome to the personal blog of Jason Stirk (Griffin) - a curious young web application developer currently living in Lismore, NSW (yes, that's in Australia). I currently run my own busness - Achernar Solutions. You can hire me if you like.
These days I tend to work mainly with Ruby and Ruby on Rails, although I've also also done my fair share of work with PHP, and administrating various flavours of Linux servers.
See more about what I do at Achernar Solutions.
or, view the full archive of posts.
Seems I'm spread all over the net these days...
These are some of the projects that I'm currently involved with - either as a business venture, or as a freelancer.
Here are a few trendy folks that I know, or have worked with.

Total volume of music files on my computer:
8.03GB spread over 1654 songs - ranging from 30's jazz, to electronica and chillout, through to 80's Pop; the classics like Sinatra and Glenn Miller pop in after Boards of Canada or odd 8-bit synths I picked up from God-knows-where.
The last CD I bought was:
Django Reinhardt - Gypsy Jazz (2cds, for only $16! How could I go past!?)
Song playing right now:
Nothing, but last played was Massive Attack - Protection.
Five songs I listen to a lot/mean a lot to me:
Five people to whom I am passing the baton:
Also interesting is the new feedmap in the sidebar - have a look and see who else nearby is blogging. I notice Danny's kicking about on there already.
Comments are gone until I sort them out, sorry!
