About Erik

photo of me July 2003 I started this site as a hobby in 1997. It is still a hobby, but it also markets me and my business. I do everything myself: layout, finding and summarising news, as well as programming for the press release monitor.

Thanks to everyone who mails me news and encouragement.

The press release monitor has grown into a fully automatic news searcher. I call the program Marvin, after the existentialist robot in The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

My work is described to the right. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you think I can be of service to you.
