Hi! My name is +Anonymous+. I am known on the Internet mostly as FirefoxRocks. I think that Wikipedia is one of the best and most effective/powerful sites on the Internet and I will do my best to contribute to it.

- XML and related technologies such as XSLT, XLinks, etc.
- Wiki Markup
Software

- Google Earth
- w:Google Desktop (not used anymore)
- Yahoo! Messenger
There are a lot more software that I really support and use, but there are too many to be listed on here. I will list some from time to time.
Entertainment (for me...)
[edit]I find Wikipedia entertaining. LOL. For non-computer entertainment, I find watching hockey, listening to music, playing board games, doing math and sometimes playing the piano. One thing I do A LOT OF is listen to Q104. I find that station to be the best in the area. Here is another list of activities (in no particular order):
- Playing Scrabble
- Listening to music
- Playing FreeCell and UNO (yes, I do that on the computer also)
- Doing Sudoku puzzles
- Chinese Checkers
- Being in the snow
- Playing the piano (sometimes)
- Writing about something I like
- Just relaxing! :)
Wikipedia and WikiProjects
[edit]As mentioned above, I enjoy making Wikipedia a better place. This means that I participate in as many WikiProjects as possible to improve Wikipedia. The most common ones that I do are Categorization, Stub Sorting, Redirect Relink and Disambiguation Page Relink.
The most important one is vandalism reverting and spam prevention! =D
Recently on April 8, 2005, I have started a new interest in helping Wikipedia backlogs. The most common one (other than ones listed above), is Image Cleanup. I have learned SVG and am helping Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons create SVG images when necessary. I just fix simple ones though, too many polylines and paths (especially curved ones) and I get confused too easily.
