technicious

Like technology - and money is a form of technology - money is good at solving problems; it is bad at opening questions.
Like technology, money is used wrongly when it converts inner questions that should be lived into problems to be solved.
Money [technology] fixes things, but not every difficulty in life should be fixed.

how to get

If you are interested in getting any of these apps, i would be flattered, and you can contact me here.


These apps were written by me James Walker and offered in the spirit in which they were enabled. They are all in use on live websites. However, i make no claims that they will perform as intended, make your web development life easier, cure heartache, or float your boat.

All are free, open source software, written and copyleft 2003-2006 by James Walker. They are released under the GNU General Public License of the GNU Project and the Free Software Foundation (FSF). with user privacy guarantee rider.

Features, install notes, license, privacy guarantee requirement, and the "leave me alone" clause are in the individual READMEs.

A hundred times every day I remind myself that my inner and outer life depend on the labours of other men, living and dead, and that I must exert myself in order to give in the same measure as I have received and am still receiving.
