So, how do we get in touch with you?

You can send me email, but only using this contact form unless you know my address, which I have not placed on here in an attempt to foil spammers. If you do know my address, I welcome encrypted mail – my key is on the public key server network.

Other than that, I am often on IRC, usually as EmleyMoor on IRCnet and EFnet. I also use the Freenode and OFTC IRC networks.

As instant messenger services go, I use the following:


It should be noted, though, that I am likely to withdraw from some of these services as they may effectively merge.


If you are contacting me in any of these ways, please do not be tempted to send junk - whether advertising (spam), messages in languages I have no way of handling or just random strings of characters intended to annoy. I am not happy to receive junk.


As far as instant messenger details go, this page will be kept up to date.
