Welcome

You’ve reached daves-place/metamusing. This site has been around in one form or another for the past eleven or twelve years. The site exists mainly as a resource for my family and friends, but there’s content here that may be of interest to the random surfer who’s happened across it.

The site’s run by me – David Hamilton. I work in IT management in higher education, currently as the Director of Web Services and the Acting Co-Director of Information Technology at Amherst College. I’m 44, was born in Missouri, and raised mostly in New York but with interludes in Ohio, British Columbia and San Francisco. I graduated from high school in Northport, New York, and got a bachelor’s degree in English Literature from the College of Wooster in 1991. I spent the about 11 years in and around Portland, Maine, then moved to Saratoga Springs, NY in the summer of 2004. In the spring of 2006 I moved to western Massachusetts, where I currently live and work. If you’d like to know more about me you can use the links at the top or meander around in my site.
