Mike Mason is Head of Technology for ThoughtWorks, where he is variously described as a developer, technical lead, architect, coach, and most recently, “executive.” ThoughtWorks does highly technical, interesting stuff, counting industry luminaries such as Martin Fowler amongst their number. If you’re a talented developer, analyst, QA person or project manager looking to work with a bunch of smart, motivated people you should join us (we’re always hiring!).

This website is Mike’s place to share his thoughts on life, the universe, and everything – most stuff has a technical slant though. He’s pretty much just trying to keep up with the Joneses – see the other blog links to the right.

The image at the top of the page was shot in Canmore, Alberta using Mike’s Nikon D80 (18-70 kit lens @ 50mm, f/6.3, 1/125 sec). You can see more of Mike’s photography on Flickr.
