I am the Head Writer at [[http://erielookingproductions.info|Erie Looking Productions]] and present ''[[http://ohio.ubuntu-us.org/burningcircle|The Burning Circle]]'', the podcast of the [[OhioTeam|Ohio LoCo Team]]. The podcast now has over sixty episodes and has been active for over a calendar year. Outside the Ubuntu realm I have presented since December 2007 ''[[http://www.lisnews.org/podcast|LISTen: An LISNews.org Podcast]]'' which deals with more general issues in the realm of library and information science. | |

I deal with preserving older technology in operational status lately and previously used a PowerPC running Lucid Lynx. I utilize a kirkwood-based [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SheevaPlug|SheevaPlug]] for back-end operations at home where tasks are either repetitive or are not necessarily interactive. As Ubuntu does not support the kirkwood variant of ARM I end up gaining proficiency with [[http://www.debian.org/ports/arm/|Debian]] using Squeeze on the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SheevaPlug|SheevaPlug]]. My principal desktop computer is a [[http://www.digikey.com/product-highlights/us/en/texas-instruments-beagleboard/685|BeagleBoard-xM]] that is running the armel release of Oneiric Ocelot. | I am called many things.

Tiered service levels is how I describe my view of computing at home. My operations are split among [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_e71x|my smartphone]], the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SheevaPlug|SheevaPlug]], my netbook running Xubuntu, and the desktop that is based on the [[http://www.digikey.com/product-highlights/us/en/texas-instruments-beagleboard/685|BeagleBoard]]. No one device alone covers all that I want to do. In keeping a presence in differing processor platforms I can help serve my community by providing a knowledge base of experience. | ''Purported Fiction Author. Lapsed Podcaster. Ubuntu Member.
