Internet Business

Since 2000 I have been working on a number of web based ventures with varying degrees of success, some still going strong today and others which have sadly passed into the cyberspace graveyard. Founding Mindcom in the search and affiliate marketing space I moved into building community websites, recently focusing all my attention on our question and answer website Blurtit.

Blurtit

Blurtit was first conceived in June 2006 and since then has been enjoying a steady growth in traffic. It’s my ambition to make Blurtit one of the leading question and answer websites on the internet building a massive database of knowledge for all to use.

Life Prior To My Web Addiction

Prior I worked as Trek Leader for Exodus, spending time trekking in the mountains of Nepal, Russia, Pakistan, Iran, Morocco, India and a few other countries.

This led on to working as Administrative and Logistics Officer for Merlin in Tajikistan. Merlin supported local health services by rehabilitating hospitals, providing laboratory equipment and programs to identify and treat diseases such as malaria & typhoid. If you ever have the chance to work for a stint in Humanitarian Aid I can’t recommend it enough.
