Sports
To follow these sports he uses every possible medium. Every year I visit the Tata Steel Chess Tournament in Wijk aan Zee and the Dani&euml;l Noteboom toernooi in Leiden.

Photography
I like to take photographs. I used Flickr to share them on the Internet, but not anymore.

Wikipedia
Internet has made knowledge like encyclopedias more accessible. I am contributing content to Wikipedia.

Computer Languages
The use of programming languages is volatile. Cobol, Fortran, C, C++ have ruled the world, Now Java is hot. The advantage of Java is the fact it is more than a computer language. But for how long will this head start last? What seems to be stable is the usage of object-oriented technology. My own webpages are mainly written in PHP, JavaScript, HTML, jQuery and Cascading style Sheets.

Projects
The following has meaning to me for recording the projects at Wikipedia.
 * Project Militairy History Rules, Guidelines
 * Wikipedia Userboxes
