Hi there! My name's GREG KNAUSS and I like to make things.

Some of those things are Web sites (like the Webby-nominated Metababy and The American People), software (both commercial and open-source, including contributions to projects like CPAN and XScreenSaver) and stories (for Web sites like Suck and Fray, print magazines like Worth and Macworld, and books like "Things I Learned About My Dad" and "Rainy Day Fun and Games for Toddler and Total Bastard").

My e-mail address is greg@eod.com. I'd love to hear from you!
