Other Personal Web Sites

I like to maintain autonomous web sites for different projects and things that I work on.

  1. RyanTimmons.com My mostly-autonomous personal site with a brief bio and resume information. RyanTimmons.com is meant to be a landing page or top-result if you will on searches on my name. That is, it's what I want people in the professional and academic world to see
  2. My Student Web Page School stuff - web pages for classes and projects and resources for school stuff.
  3. My CS Home Page CS School Stuff - links to projects/papers/etc related to my CS major and all that related jazz.
  4. My staff web page Work stuff - information about workshops, etc. This page also contains links to my collection of web-design resources.

Personal Sources of Information

Below is a listing of sites containing my bits of information that would otherwise be scattered in ten thousand folders on my computer.

  1. My Personal and Work Schedule I'm more-or-less required (by my job) to keep my schedule on this site current. If it's on this schedule, I'll be there. If not, email me to put it on there or I'm almost guaranteed to forget within 10 minutes.

Social Networking Sites

I can be found on the following social networking sites:

  1. My Facebook Profile The Face Book (or just Facebook for all you puritans) is a social-networking site designed as a competitor to (the vastly immature and dangerous) MySpace network. It is oriented toward college students, although anyone with an email address may now join and view limited information about anyone.
  2. My Twitter Feed Twitter is a slightly terrifying service. Essentially you put in what you're doing, and it broadcasts that to everyone. Join Twitter to keep track of me.
  3. My MySpace Profile (Please note that my profile is a bit brazen. My apologies. I was receiving an inappropriately large number of inappropriate friends requests and decided to be slightly less than debonaire to retaliate.)
  4. Last.fm ...is a music-based social networking site. It attaches to my iTunes and reports back what I listen to and tells me what others with similar listening habits are also listening to. Some of the music recommendations are bad, but some are pretty decent.
  5. My Digg.com 'Dugg' Stories Digg is a news- (primarily technology-news-) oriented site where news stories are submitted by users and voted on by other users.
  6. My Flickr Account ...has a small number of photos I've taken or found interesting. Most of my school photos are on my Facebook, and I don't post a lot of my personal and family photos online.
  7. My LiveJournal ...is rarely updated and is a standing memory of how stupid I used to be and can still be at times. Most "good" entries require me to approve your LJ account as a friend.

My Domain Names

Domain names run about the cost of a sub sandwich, and hosting is easy to maintain. Every so often I take it upon myself to buy a new domain or two. Usually I don't do much with them, but occasionally I turn them into code- or information-buckets for various projects.

  1. Ganon.com I started this web site something like eight years ago as a fan-site for the Nintendo Zelda game series. While that site no longer exists (in a public fashion), I maintain the domain name as my central index site because it houses my main email address, and a lot of things I've posted online are "deep-linked" to it.
  2. RyanTimmons.com Everybody needs to own their-name-dot-com, right?
  3. parsed|out.com A work in progress: my blog on software engineering, web design, and life in a world that demands a person behind both.
  4. UWWebpub.com A forwarding domain for my staff web publishing account at work. It has all my "resource" pages for workshops. I'm currently working on redesigning the site and organizing from the ground-up.
