Tēnā koe, thanks for visiting my site. I guess you are here to check out just who this @elpie person is so I will tell you a little about myself.
Ko Maunganui te maunga
Ko Waipoua te awa
Ko Kawerua te moana
Ko Te Roroa te iwi
Ko Taoho te tangata
Ko Matatina te marae
Ko Lynne Pope ahau.
I am Lynne Pope, also known as Elpie (which is why my site is called "a.k.a Elpie"), a New Zealand-based programmer turned web designer turned … well, that's a tough one… getting involved in open source software development almost a decade ago has kinda turned me into a Jill of All Trades! Did I mention open source? That's my great passion.
That's me, in the pix. The one you see on Twitter is my alter-ego (I'm a bit shy, which makes presentations and public speaking somewhat challenging - but I love challenges!)
Welcome to a.k.a Elpie
I write tutorials for Mambo, WordPress and whatever other app I happen to be working with at any given time. I also blog about open source tools, SEO, web site design and development, and share a few tips along the way. Once in awhile I even get around to releasing some code to download. In my free time (ha!) I can be found working various open source projects.
Read more about me and what this site is about. I've had a few mentions in the news media if you are interested.
