“A vendor will come along and they'll store your identity but give you complete freedom to move it where ever you want when ever you want at no cost. They'll make it easy to do so. And they'll get rich doing it, if they want to.”

“Praising companies for providing APIs to get your own data out is like praising auto companies for not filling your airbags with gravel. I’m not saying data export isn’t important, it’s just aiming kinda low. You mean when I give you data, you’ll… give it back to me?”
Where am I?
This site belongs to Matthew J. Tarbit esquire. A tired old web developer holed-up in a hideaway somewhere in the depths of Leeds, England.
Along with being a home for my ramblings and linkings, it's also a resting place for the bones of a shared blog by the name of Pixelised, now long departed.
If you feel the need, you may add my outpourings to the deluge that is your already overflowing info drip feed.
Or why not rest a while and dig through my entries like a corpulent pig in search of all that is truffle-icious.
