~$ whois

I am Wouter de Bruijn a 23 year old guy who is interested in all kinds of technology. I experiment with Linux servers, computer networking, software development, embedded devices and other various bits of technology.

I have been interested in technology since I was a little kid. At first mostly in physical things like basic electronics and making stuff out of wood and scraps. Later on I got interested in computers and software development. I started out with making some simple websites and setting up a Linux server. Which grew into following two IT educations, and working part-time as a software developer and network/ system engineer for two companies.
