My main interests here are:


 * Indonesian
 * English as an Additional Language
 * How to learn a language
 * Cookbook (very occasional involvement)
 * Demystifying Depression (just looking so far).

I'm a Wikipedian, Wikian, and Appropedian:


 * Wikipedia profile. My main focus on Wikipedia is the WikiProject International development.


 * Wikia profile. Not very active.


 * Appropedia profile. For appropriate technology, development & sustainability issues that aren't suitable for Wikipedia (e.g. how-to's, original research).

For more info about me, see my homepage.

What's in my Wikibooks userspace

 * Learning techniques - focused on mnemonics. These are things I find useful - feel free to draw on this, e.g. if doing something for Wikibooks.
 * Recipes and cooking tips. I believe in good food - taste, satisfaction, and nutrition. I'm not really compatible with Cookbook on Wikibooks (I want original recipes and a rating system, whereas Cookbook is more like a textbook of standard recipes), so I'll eventually move it somewhere else, such as Communipes.

Conversations I'm keeping an eye on

 * Staff lounge/Archive 14 re Where can I put a thesis? & Foundational Books.
 * Talk:Cookbook
