Day job: Web Developer at Core Web Design (in the land of persistent rain; Wales).
Your Rails contributions (if any): Moral support and a few decent bug reports.
What's your Ruby/Rail experience?: Nearly two years using Ruby/Rails. Currently using it to build projects at work and at home which I wouldn't dream of attempting by myself in anything else.
How do you use GitHub?: I use GitHub for my own projects, my work projects, and even more as my go-to place for library discovery.
