Introduction
editHi all!
My name is Shlomi Fish, and I'm an Israeli writer (of creative stories and screenplays, aphorisms and quotes, articles and essays, lectures, blog entries or comments and web content), a professional software developer (of open source software or otherwise), and also an amateur mathematician, and an even more amateur artist. Lately, I've started seeing myself as an Internet-based entertainer/amateur-philosopher/etc. similar to the fact that during Hellenistic times, philosophy was considered a form of entertainment. I'm also active in promoting and advocating various Open Source and Open Content technologies and resources in Israel and on the Internet.
My home-site is maintained by me, and contains many things I've written and placed online, as well as links to other sites or places I've created. A Duck Duck Go search on my name or a a Google Search will also yield many useful links (as are similar searches like those for "shlomif").
