Ben Jones’s Biography
Read Full Bio →I'm a young, technology-literate writer, that can has spent 5 years specializing on P2P systems and the Pirate Party political movement worldwide.
I am also educated in hard-science (physics, astrophysics, chemistry, robotics) and can cover those areas in a pinch.
If I had one flaw, it's that I talk/write TOO much.
