BioYou don't have to ask me if you want to add me as a friend- just do it (TM).
I'm Robbie, a recovering Linux geek in Atlanta, GA. I'm a full time graduate student (political science, international business, and GIS) and a part time technology consultant. This is my journal. One of my aims is to open up a proper blog on another site in the near future, and only use this for personal journaling. As a part of this goal, I'm making any posts older than a sliding window of two years ago friends-only here.
I'm somewhat chained to Atlanta now that I'm in school, but I'd love to go traveling around the world again. I'd also rather be drinking a Guilder at an outdoor bar in Lagos:
I'm interested in politics, foreign policy, economics, civil liberties, technology policy, and politics in developing countries.
I love to travel, though I don't have the time to do as much as I'd like to.
