British? Noder? Britnoders! I'm the person to message thesedays if you want in (or out). If you're not British1, but planning a visit, then you're also welcome to join and we'll probably cobble together a nodermeet in your honour. See also: nódóirí, for Irish shenanigans.

I live in Edinburgh, Scotland, where I'm studying for a PhD in Mathematics (to be more precise, number theory). The resulting workload, and the lack of a personal computer in the office, conspire to keep me from E2 during the day; but I'm still about most evenings. I suspect my noding rate will slow to a crawl, however.

Searchable, categorised summaries of my mathematics nodes are now available via my blog, along with LaTeX formatted pdf versions that should be a lot easier to read than my HTML/ASCII art attempts here. If you're really keen, you could use the RSS feed to keep track of when I post new content.
