Ryan Parman
Geek. Writer. Music Lover.
Hi, my name is Ryan. I live near Seattle where I'm a Software Engineer and Web Developer for Amazon Web Services. In my spare time I goof around with my kids, watch movies, listen to music, cook, blog, and write software that benefits the entire web community. Previously, I founded or co-founded SimplePie, CloudFusion and WarpShare. I value honesty, respect, passion, and being genuine. I believe in making tomorrow a better place than today.

Random thoughts about daily minutiae.
- YEP! "NSA leaker is a patriot not a traitor" http://brad.me/16YaLsO
- Edward Snowden is an American, and did what an American is supposed to do.
- @garrettmurray You said it: you need to sit with it. It feels so wrong to me, I can’t form words. So I’m going to sit with it too. But if you asked me to form words, they’d start with “dog” and “shit”.
- Pundits: "We want new icons!" Apple: "Here are new icons." Pundits: "Whoa! We didn't mean *new* new icons!"
- I have hopes a few months of refinement will make this better, but the general direction is not my favorite by a long way.
