About Adminian

I am a learner first and foremost. Then I am a maker (the new hacker). I started out doing helpdesk work at a dotcom. From there I got into system administration. I had a great time doing this, but when ever someone would ask: “Ian, I want to get into computers…what should I do?”. I would tell them to get into development. I finally took my own advice. Since then I’ve learned Perl, C, C#…and still going.
