My homepage. After being on the Internet for a good decade (and good it was), I decided to get me one too. It does sound really circa 1996, but I wanted a place to put projects online, projects that did not have a place on one of the dedicated websites I worked on.

So here it is. About me: I'm Douwe Osinga, born in 1968 in Haarlem. I used to run my own company, Oberon Medialab, before Google hired me. I now live in Zurich where I work for Google's European Engineering office, though I am currently on assignment in India, Hyderabad.

I like technology as a way to make ideas visible. Nietzsche wanted to be the philosopher with the hammer, why not think with a mouse?

I sometimes get questions how my name is pronounced: Listen here..

Of course anything I publish here is just for the fun of it and doesn't necesarily reflect the opinions of Google, World66 or anyone really. Sometimes not even me.
