Welcome

My name’s Rose Vines. I’m an Australian writer, editor and activist, working in New Orleans. I write for computer magazines in Australia and the US and act as the technical dogsbody for the Death Penalty Discourse Network and Sister Helen Prejean. I’m interested in making technology accessible to people and helping people use technology to make the world a better place.

Want to show support for Geekgirl’s blog and web site? Consider kicking in to my fund for Afghan orphans. We’ve already funded an orphanage - $16,000! - through this program. (Many thanks to all of you who contributed.)

Now I’m trying to raise $120/month during the coming year. That amount will pay the full cost for one child in an orphanage. To learn more, read this post or visit the Afghan Child Education & Care Organization
