Open Source
Below are a few open source libraries I have created.
- cdnjs - the missing cdn: cdnjs is a free community project which host many developer resources on a content distribution network
- backbone.js tutorials: Starting in 2011, I started writing tutorials for backbone.js starting from beginners to complex examples.
- kalei - living style guide: Kalei style guide generates CSS documentation containing examples of your styles, much like Twitter Bootstrap.
- seo server : A node.js module that runs up a server to redirect search engines to the full content of your Javascript applications.
I have many more open source projects which can be found on my github page.
Organizations
Api Engine is a collaborative documentation platform for API's. Aiming to build a community for API development, as GitHub did for Git.
Books
Backbone Tutorials is a free ebook dedicated to working with backbone.js. 
The book is an ongoing work and updates are pushed automatically to devices. The tutorials cover beginner, intermediate and advanced material.
Philosophy
My competing love in life is philosophy. I currently am reading through the classics, not bounded by era or region. I'm always trying to expand my literary circles so please get in contact.
Studies include
- Ancient Greek Language
- Mandarin (I want to work geo-politically)
- Greek and Chinese classical text
- All religious text
- Continental / Analytical Philosophy
- Psychoanalysis and psychology
- Poetry
- Politics (anarchist/communist/captitalist)
- Physics, biology and neuroscience
- Algorithms and programming theory
The idea is that I'm writing a book with no title, yet.
"The value of life lies not in the length of days, but in the use we make of them... Whether you find satisfaction in life depends not on your tale of years, but on your will." - Michel de Montaigne
