I’m Technofunkenstein! I’m a superhero, dammit! Don’t act as if you’ve never heard of me. I’m THE super hero for the new millennium -- I can immolate denizens of the internet with a single post. I can get from a browser in Salt Lake City to a server in New Delhi at near light speeds. All with a flick of my fingers.
How did I become an internet super hero? I started a blog. No, wait, back up. I signed up for AOL in 1995 and then became a computer programmer. Thus began my metamorphosis from simple, socially well-adjusted and productive human to Technofunkenstein -- a quixotic cyborg capable of superhuman feats of misguided effort and wasted motion. Starting a blog was the culmination of the process.
Now, I live here in my internet lair... what? Yes, I know that super-villains are the ones that have lairs. But this is my alter-ego and invented reality, so if I want a lair, I can have it. You go start your own blog and you can have a hall of goody goody heroes if you want to.
Okay, so I'm not a superhero. How many software engineers do you know that would look good in tights? My name is Lance Woodson. I'm a senior software engineer in Salt Lake City, UT. I currently work at Software Technology Group during the day, and president, CTO, architect and idiot behind Cry From The Cubicles, a social networking site for disgruntled employees. More importantly, I'm a father, husband and naturalist.
