Aimless Bob Sleeps and Misses the Closing of the GMail Invite Spooler
Is Google evil? I have gotten the word from Gmail's Product Manager that my service is no longer tolerable. At midnight PDT June 7th, 2005, this service was disabled. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to all who contributed to this service. Your generosity helped out a vast number of people and for that you should be proud. The gmail spooler email account is now deactivated and any mail sent to it will bounce. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to drop me a line: email@isnoop.net via [isnoop.net] I have been out of pocket for several months (summer vacation) and I have not been giving the site the focus I have in the past....

GMail Now Google Mail
in Germany... Sorry about the sensational headline: Google’s introduction of the email service ‘Gmail’ already had a bad start. First the search machine hit the headlines in America for failing to register the trademark in time, and then followed a trademark dispute in Germany. As the name ‘Gmail’ is already registered in Germany in class 38 for electronic services, Google has now renamed its service. In Germany from now on the service will run under the name ‘Google Mail’.

Job Hunting

With apologies for using the blog as a job board, my four-month contract in Beijing has just ended and I'm looking for work again. There are three things I can do fairly well:

Freelance Writing
Apart from the kind of blog stuff you see here, I've written a couple of well-received technical articles and popularizations. My specialty is presenting technical material to nontechnical people in a way that persuades them to part with large sums of money. For three years my job involved seducing a liberal arts foundation board with beautiful grant proposals in information retrieval; I later worked as a program officer for that same foundation and so learned the correct milking procedure in great detail. I would be happy to help with grant proposals, prospectuses, white papers or technical documentation.

Translation
I spent a number of years doing short-notice technical translations from French and Russian into English, mainly in the areas of computer software, organic chemistry, and food science. Please email me if you'd like to see samples.

Programming
I've done a lot of work with natural-language processing, including running a now-defunct blog census, writing the automatic language identifier that powers Technorati, and doing some interesting things with literary text. I've also worked on numerous projects in information retrieval and categorization, including latent semantic search, automated clustering as applied to iTunes, and the beloved but unimplemented LOAF distributed social network. My most recent job involved designing an AJAX templating framework and doing extensive integration work with Google maps, I hope to have samples of this up shortly.

I'm legal to work in the United States, United Kingdom, Poland and (for unfathomable reasons) Sweden. I can work full-time starting in mid-November, and I'm available for freelance jobs starting now. My full resume is here and any email inquiries are welcome.
