Biography
Hey there! Welcome to me short bio.
I've been using computers since 1999, with Internet access the year after. I frequented a few online communities before lurking on Neowin in the summer of 2004 (because of Wincustomize linking to Neowin news articles) and registering in March 2005. Since 2009 I've been serving on Neowin's moderation staff.
I also contribute news articles to Neowin. My involvement with journalism began in high school as an editor for our school newspaper.
I'm currently in my third year of studying computer science at the University of Toronto. Geeks for the win!
In my spare time I casually surf on sites, hang out with friends, or watch newscasts. I'm not really big on movies or TV shows. Gaming is a nightly habit for me. I remain a rather staunch and opinionated PC gamer, despite owning a PS3 and an NDS.
I registered on Neowin as "rm20010" and had that nickname as my display name until Februrary 26, 2011.

At first glance, the Slingshot appears to be yet another smartphone stabilizer for cutting down on hand jitter in videos. On further inspection, it's much more than that. And it's universal.
2 days ago, an ambitious 6-man team from Palo Alto hoped to get $100,000 worth of pledges for their upcoming product, Pebble. Now with over 2 million dollars pledged, it's easy to see why.
With a new breath of change for the struggling Blackberry brand coming later this year, RIM now has one milestone to be displeased of: they're no longer number one in their home turf of Canada.

Some unclarity surrounding the inclusion of Windows Media Center in the upcoming Windows 8 Consumer Preview prompted Microsoft to do two things: reveal Media Center itself, and a build number: 8225.
Another day, another leak of screenshots from Windows 8 build 8220. While the classic desktop is still more of the same, there is a new tasty UI tidbit - and it's not the Start orb.
