About
My name is Nathan Ward.
I’m an IT jack-of-all-trades currently based in Wellington, New Zealand.
I prefer to do carrier grade IP engineering, web development (I like Ruby on Rails), and Linux/UNIX server management (I like to use Redhat, or derivatives).
I run Braintrust. We are a group of IT geeks who do many, many things. Currently we’re interested in Internet routing (no, not configuring ADSL routers), Internet audio streaming, outsourced server management, outsourced web app development, and hosting web, email, and DNS services.
I manage NZRave.com, New Zealand’s original dance music website.
I’m involved in recreational drug use harm minimisation. This means that I promote safe drug use through education, as opposed to prohibition. I don’t use illegal drugs anymore, but I am passionate about promoting their safety.
As I’m sure you can imagine, I’m very busy.
