Justin Ball is chief TwHistory software lacky. Justin has been involved in the OER movement since 2006 and spends his days writing software as a consultant and entrepreneur with a passion for Ruby. He evolved from a C++ and .Net monkey into a Python programmer and finally found Ruby. In the rare moments when he isn't writing code, talking about code or measuring his code productivity in profanity per hour, you can find him biking in the mountains or on the roads surrounding Cache Valley. Justin can be found pontificating at http://www.justinball.com.
