w00t - I'm here, too

[Jared Brees]

I'm in the Des Moines area (West Des Moines); currently I'm attending DMACC (Urban Campus), so any work for that will take priority...

My transportation is fairly limited (no vehicle of my own), but I can easily lurk on IRC; are we talking the one on Freenode or Ubuntu? (Server/channel?)

My strengths would probably lie in hardware and/or troubleshooting. However, the relative level of my Google-Fu is probably higher than either of those. (That is, given the "average" hardware, troubleshooting, and Google-Fu gurus, the difference in my skill/their skill is probably greater for Google-Fu than either the hardware or troubleshooting.) I'm not sure about that, but in my experience so far, it seems to be the case.

I would consider myself a newbie at writing scripts, but I do have some experience with that; I can usually do it, it just takes a long time. (I think others could spit out code much faster, but then again, I don't have any reference point.) I can do XHTML, CSS, Bash, Perl, whatever that variant of C# it is that's used by the Arduino IDE, and JavaScript. (That list was in order of my skill from most efficient to least efficient.)

I have an updated version (I updated it) of one of the Ubuntu flyers; I didn't post it anywhere since I didn't know how the licensing works for that. The original one is here:
"http://doc.ubuntu.com/~marketing/spreadubuntu/DIY%20Material/DIY-at-home/Posters,%20Filip%20Dominec%20&%20Jenda%20Van%C4%8Dura/Poster-en.png"

Let's keep going with this nice little "cyber-AED shock" (I mean, "recent mailing list activity indicating interest").
