Intro post
Greetings!
A few words of introduction: fandom is full of awesomely talented people, and fans have been making websites, archives and other tools for ourselves and each other for decades now. A lot of us are tech types in some respect: coders, designers, sysadmins; hobbyists and professionals. After the recent shake-ups with Delicious, there were a lot of conversations about building our own system, and it occurred to me that while Dreamwidth and AO3 both have their own dev communities and there are a myriad of tech sites on the internet, we don't really have a place within fandom for people to pool their knowledge, brainstorm about projects, andplot world domination generally keep in touch with one another.
So, here goes! Feel free to introduce yourselves and share a little about what you're working on or what you'd like to learn more about. Posting is currently open to anyone who joins - don't feel shy about tossing out questions or discussion topics!
