Hi, I'm bact'. I'm here mainly for fun, and that's important for me. I rarely put any comment when finished editing article, I know. Talk to me straight.
Things around me
- My interests are computing, informatics, linguistics, and sociology. In particular, computational linguistics, social network, and social software. In general, intelligence – individually and collectively.
- Taking advantage on being native Thai, I made some contributions to topics related to Thai or Thailand.
- Sometimes you may see me hopping around topics about Scottish things, Scottish, and land. I used to live in Edinburgh, Scotland, for a year and got a master's in cognitive science and natural language from School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh.
- Currently I'm working in University of Potsdam, Potsdam, Germany. And live in Berlin. I like to contribute something about the cities.
- Other things I'm obssesed in are education in Thailand, especially in science and technology. Try to be unbiased and stay on facts only, I contribute a lot to Sirindhorn International Institute of Technology topic, as well as other topics of surrounding institutions.
- Open source, Free software, Creative Commons, Open standards, I support. I made considerable contributions to OpenOffice.org, especially for its Thai localization. But, well, I'm not a Linux guy. I admit that I'm a bit biased to Solaris. I used to work for Sun Microsystems for three years, that's why :P Anyway, my current operating system of choice on my laptop (my primary computer) is clearly Windows XP !
Conclusion of things around me. Welcome global cooperation, realise local value, respect individuals, enjoy community.
Warning: I'm not a saint. I drink Pilsener a lot :P
