Code, nerd culture and humor from Greg Knauss.

A while back, one of my kids and his girlfriend and some mutual friends of theirs went to Las Vegas to celebrate her birthday over a long weekend. As young people are wont to do, they booked the crappiest hotel for the cheapest price, to have more money to hand directly to the casinos. I did exactly the same thing when I was their age.

But Vegas has changed, and fraying carpets and broken sinks are not the only terrors that away you on the low end anymore.

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

Some of those things are software (like Romantimatic), Web sites (like the Webby-nominated Metababy and The American People) 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!
