User:DeirdreStraughan

I'm Deirdré Straughan (that’s pronounced DEAR-druh STRAWN) – the only Deirdré Straughan in the world, to the best of my knowledge.

There is a great deal of information about me, along with writing, photos, and videos about all sorts of things, available on my personal site, Countries Beginning with I.

Immediately-relevant information includes that I currently work for Joyent.

As regards Wikipedia, so far, I occasionally edit pages related to people whom I know well in technology (usually at their request). I do this because I'm interested in helping people get recognition for the things they're good at, and the people I know best and work most closely with tend to be geeks.
