Welcome to my User Page

Wikipedia is much like my personal search engine, a quick info on topics that interest me. A constant wiki reader for years without creating an account, so on 24 March 2012 I've taken the pseudonym SyncSeth. What do I add to this page? Hmmm. A picture of me in a mohawk perhaps? nah. I'll think of something and that Einstein moment came on 30 March 2012. Or is it? I've decided to use this User Page to post Wikipedia articles relevant to me as a newcomer or something that catch my fancy. So here goes my Wikipedia journey... SyncSeth
