Tim Bray and jobs

Lorcan Dempsey 1 min read

Tim Bray announces that he is looking for something new to do. He remains associated with Antarctica but would like to work on search in a new environment.

But I can be more specific than that. Here’s what I’d really like to do: Over the last few months, I�ve written a long essay here at ongoing on the subject of search technology (“Slashdotted” on December 18th, thus read by tens of thousands); I concluded with a vision of what the engine, whose interim name is BRF for Basic Resource Finder, should look like. Now I want to build it. Obviously, lots of the pieces you�d need (maybe most of them) are already out there and ready to use. So it would be running and useful inside of a year.

Celebrating Ohio

A temporary relocation makes me realize how much there is to like and to say about Ohio, where we have lived for the last 22 years. We moved to Ohio from the UK (and lived in Ireland before that). Here are some observations based on our travels around the State over the years.
