Hi: This is the website for Owen Carter, a British guy who has been living in Amsterdam for the last 11 years.
I'm afraid there is nothing earth-shattering here, no solutions for World Peace, no cures for peoples ills.. Just a few of my photos and ramblings.

March 18th, 2005 | Owen is coming, eventually. But do Microsoft realise that someone has already beaten them to it? 
March 18th, 2005 | Owen “Consider the usenet as a kind of asynchronous network. Consider the participants as nodes that connect and disconnect at random. Now consider the result. The value has *NOT* increased along with the number of nodes. Instead, the SNR became very small, and my belief is that the current SNR is negative, at least on average. There is still some good information to be found in pockets, but there is plenty of misinformation, too, and *LOTS* of noise.
I think the decisive factor is that the fanatical propagators of misinformation must be aware (at some level) that they are fighting against reality–but their response is to shout louder and more frequently, simply repeating their misinformation. Are they hoping that lies repeated enough times will somehow become true? Or they just hope to bury the truth they hate?”
Very interesting.. From Slashdot, a post by ‘Shanen’
March 16th, 2005 | Owen An informative article on MSNBC:
“There is this weird sense that the Internet is broken because it lets people make easy copies. . . . The Internet is a machine for making copies, and artists need to come to grips with that,” Cory Doctorow
March 15th, 2005 | Owen is a long, boring, process. But I’m much better informed now, so time to start plugging away.
March 14th, 2005 | Owen The carillon in Gaasperplas is now working again! Not everybody round here likes it, but I have always thought it was a really nice feature of the area.
