First up

• About me.
• My old office in the New Computer Laboratory has its own page.
• I am married to Carolyn McEwan, whom I met while studying in Glasgow, and we have a son Aidan, born in July 2003.
• I'm a committed Christian. Why? There are some good explanations and discussions here.
• I am involved in FORUM, the 18-30s group of St Andrews Street Baptist Church, Cambridge (the church has its own out-of-date page).
• The Bible study group I once attended has its own home page.
• Burns McEwan Associates, the leadership development consultancy, is now hosted at lochan.org.
• My brother-in-law has set up Out of the Box, a puppet ministry team based in Scotland.
• Here's some photographs of the department where I worked in Glasgow.
• You can read KeithNet, the messages I have been sending home to my friends about what I've been up to, starting from my trip to LA and Europe in September 1997.
• There was a picture of me, Jarno van der Linden and David Brennan in Philadelphia, PA at the 1996 International Collegiate Programming Contest in February, 1996 at www.acm.org (we came seventh equal); however, it's gone and only a local copy remains.
• My geek code is at the bottom of this page.
• I'm beginning the long process of a complete redesign of these pages. Please help me with your ideas! I have placed my brainstorming notes and wild ideas on this page.

Work

Here are some links related to the various places I've been working over the years:

• I currently have an office (FE03) all to myself, but until recently I was sharing office FE21 with Andrei Serjantov and Steven Bishop. We recently moved from T71 in the old New Museums Site building. Previous fellow inhabitants have been: in T71 Pawel Wojciechowski, and in T51 (my former abode) Gergely Buday and Sųren Lassen (at Digital Fountain).
• My office-mates in room F151 at Glasgow (1997-8) were Joy Goodman, Mark Shields, Fermin Reig, Genesio Neto, Laszlo Nemeth, and Eric Wilcox. Make sure you check out our office page.
• My office-mates in room 104 of the Auckland CS department back in 1996 were Terry Spencer, Worik Stanton, and Robert Blandford.
• I worked part-time for around six years at Roland Digital Group, part of Roland Corporation (NZ) Ltd, back in Auckland. You may also have a look at the Roland DG America Internet site, and the Roland Corporation International web site.

Play

Here's a list of things you might find interesting:

• The Concentration Calculator, an ECMAscript tool to calculate concentrations for biologists and chemists.
• My list of cool links.
• My ideas about redesigning this site - at one point I was all keen to redo it, but it never happened. Maybe it will one day.
• My Cambridge Page.
• My Cambridge adventure pages.
• My Stir Fry Guide.
• My page of Useful Information (computer-related code fragments and tips and tricks).
• My photo album, including some photos of Bevan's of our recent (Feb 1999) tramp in the Waitakeres, in Auckland (inter alia).
• My list of Cool Things To Do in Auckland (yes, my home city in New Zealand).
• My recent reading list.
• A list of libraries that I've written and released publically.
• A list of my hackery that I've put together: scripts and programs to do useful things.
• The Beast's Home Page, a page in honour of my no-longer-recently deceased Toyota Corolla station wagon.
• My (annotated) list of albums I own (hideously out of date).
• Some cool quotes I've collected.
• Some humourous bits and pieces.
• The script of The Princess Bride (local copy; see also the original message and other copies on the 'net.
• My public files directory.
