I don’t do anything of consequence.
I walk my dogs, make coffee for my better half, and read.
I am not looking for a job and have not worked for anyone since 2013.
I have been online since approximately 1985 and have been doxed and threatened multiple times over those years. Just know that I treat all threats as real and actionable until withdrawn or eliminated and will respond accordingly.
For a brief time I was IBM's Corporate Webmaster. The Corporate Webmaster was responsible for running ibm.com and managing the technical side of IBM's global web presence. It was sort of like today's CTO role but without any cool hats.
In my spare time I also worked in some sort of technical role on the Deep Blue vs. Kasparov web site, and the 1996 and 1998 Olympic Games web sites.
In 1999 I left ibm.com to manage the content and applications team for the Sydney Olympic Games web site. Working on the Olympic Games full time was an eye opening experience. Learned a lot. Flew a lot.
I took a sabbatical starting in February 2001 and picked the single worst week in New York City history to return to working for IBM.
I left IBM at the end of 2001 to work for and get fired from a series of startups in New York City. Seventeen startups. Zero successful exits. One picnic basket.
I am typically “epc” or “epcostello” on various sites.
