Welcome to Scott Gifford's Homepage

Thanks for stopping by!  This site is where I jot down my thoughts on whatever's interesting to me at the moment, and the projects I'm involved with.

I work for Locomatix, developing high-performance server software in C++, the My Aura Web site with Drupal, and our Windows Mobile client with the .NET Compact Framework.  I am also a volunteer and board member with the Genesee Free-Net, and develop the home search software that drives HomeSurf USA.  I have a few free software projects I've written, like interceptty, UCSPI-TLS, and various qmail patches.  I used to work for the UMich Whereabouts Project and for Resource Genesee, and some of you may remember me from The Internet Ramp back in the 90s.  I do occasional consulting on networking and computer security, and write Perl code to amuse myself.

When I'm not working or programming, I like to spend time with my family, and hang around Flint, where I've lived for the last 12 years.
