I'm often asked to provide a bio, such as when speaking. I haven't been happy with what I've provided so far so I thought I'd try a few samples and see if I could get some feedback. :)

Bio 1 - the irreverent

Phil Haack is awful at writing speaker bios, hates referring to himself in the third person, but is good at doing what he's told. He works at GitHub bringing social coding, rainbows, and unicorns to .NET and Windows developers. Prior to GitHub, Phil worked at Microsoft shipping software such as ASP.NET MVC, NuGet, and other odds and ends.

Phil was a co-author of the infamous 4-forehead book on ASP.NET MVC and is a regular speaker at conferences around the world, but loves speaking at {{your conference here}} most of all!

For more about Phil, check out his blog at http://haacked.com/ or his Twitter account http://twitter.com/#!/haacked.

Bio 2 - the odd

function isCurrentDirectoryGitRepository {
    if ((Test-Path ".git") -eq $TRUE) {
        return $TRUE
    }
    
    # Test within parent dirs

/*
 To avoid polluting the global namespace this uses an anonymous
 function which is called with either the URL for an external
 JavaScript file or a function. In either case jQuery will be loaded
 from the Google CDN before your code is executed so it's free to
 depend on jQuery without checking for it and can do things like
 jQuery.getScript() to load other components (e.g. jQuery UI),
 stylesheets, etc.
