First I'd like to welcome you to my personal home on the web. My name is Brian Austin and what you see before you is a collection of writings on a wide range of topics that interest me. I've established several sections so you can find things more easily they are:

• Articles - Full length items that typically deal with career issues, product reviews
  or test drives of the latest Web 2.0 services.


• Editorials - Shorter and more to the point. These usually consist of my thoughts on
  anything from business and finance to technology and science.


• Daily Blog - Mostly short blurbs about interesting articles or buzz worthy rumors I've
  heard. This section is by no means published daily but the content is updated much more frequently.


• News & Projects - Additionally you will find a link in the upper right to a
  collection of on going projects and a collection of site related announcements.

If you'd like to subscribe to a particular section, individual RSS feeds can be found on the front page for convenience.

About me:

I am an established software developer currently working in the Customer Relationship Management (CRM) space of the automotive retail industry. I specialize in ASP.Net , Windows Forms and Windows Services development. I'm also an avid reader of IT security, global business and cultural topics, as well as a wide array of financial publications.

In my personal life, I am a devoted husband and father which I cherish every moment of. I'm also interested in motor sports and tinkering with automobiles. This interest was a driving force in the creation of the Ultimate Racing Game (URGO) project.
