I'm Tim Sawyer. I'm a software architect. I usually end up writing software in my spare time too, though I can also be found playing percussion and taking photos.
This blog is my notebook, where I can record how something was done. If someone else finds this content enlightening then so much the better.
Everything on here is my own view and reflects no one I have, do or will work for.
