    I am the overlord of clusters of computers around Auckland, I make sure they behave and are sending the correct bits and bytes to each other. If they don't do as they are told I get to have my way with them. I also interface with their users and bosses as most of them do not speak the same language.

    Similarly, I am the overload of a bunch of computers stashed in radio stations around the country. I make sure they behave and enable the broadband enabled public to stream radio.

    I'm a interactive producer at a company in Auckland called Oktobor, working in the interactive department (naturally) I produce everything from websites, CD-Roms, touch screens etc etc etc

    And I love my job to death! Previously I was a senior web designer but after 9 years in the creative industry I felt it better to order designers around than actually design.......

    Well, there were three in the North Island, thirteen in the South Island and TransPower's Benmore HVDC station and cable station at Fighting Bay.

    I guess you probably made bits for at least one of them.

    Our paths may well have crossed already, amicably I trust! Cheers John.
