User:Wongm

My nickname is wongm. I am from Victoria, Australia. These days I usually only clean up articles I stumble upon, and updating railway articles based on news articles.

About me
My personal blog is http://wongm.com/

I work as a software developer in Melbourne, Australia - I studied at Swinburne University of Technology.

Check out what music I listen to via the audioscrobbler project at http://www.audioscrobbler.com/user/wongm/

I like both trains and photography - I have a stack of railway photographs at http://railgallery.wongm.com/

A long term project of mine has been a history of the railways of Geelong and the surrounding areas - http://www.railgeelong.com/ - I intend to work some of the info into here as well.

Another area of interest to me is Hong Kong - you'll find my blog at http://www.checkerboardhill.com/
