So, I'm Ross Whitney or Rosco as I sign my posts and as my lovely wife calls me.</p> <p>I'm an IT Architect by day and run Proposed Solution as well as few other pet projects in my spare time.</p> <p>Aside from writing really helpful articles ;) here on PS I have some non-computery hobbies such as photography, watching and playing sports and travelling. The photo above was taken in Vietnam last year although you can't really tell because of my big face in the way. :)</p> <p>If you've had enough of this techie stuff already, you can check out my South East Asia Travelog and read all about our latest travel adventures in Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand. It's <a href="http://www.southeastasiatravelog.com">right here</a> :) </p> <p>You can connect with me too - there's a whole lot of different ways to connect on the left.</p> <br /> <p>Cheers, Rosco</p> </div> </div> <div id="ft_bottom_line"> <div id="ft_bottom_icons"> <a href="http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=referer"><img src="http://images.proposedsolution.com/valid-xhtml10_002.png" alt="Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional" height="31" width="88" /> </a> <a href="http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=referer"><img src="http://images.proposedsolution.com/valid-xhtml10-blue_002.png" alt="Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional" height="31" width="88" /> </a> <a href='http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/?from=sfx&uid=276990&t=456'><img height="32" width="110" src='http://images.proposedsolution.com/110x32_get_002.png' alt='Spread Firefox Affiliate Button' border='0' /> </a> <a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/"><img alt="Creative Commons License" height="31" width="88" style="border-width:0" src="http://images.proposedsolution.com/88x31_002.png" /> </a> </div> <div id="ft_bottom_text"> <span>© 2010 Ross Whitney <span class="pipe">|</span> <a href="http://www.proposedsolution.com/privacy-policy/">Privacy Policy</a> <span class="pipe">|</span> <a href="http://www.proposedsolution.com/disclosure-policy-2010/">Disclosure Policy</a> </span> </div> </div> </div><!-- End footer --> </div><!-- End region --> </div><!-- End page --> <!-- Kontera ContentLink --> <script type="text/javascript"> var dc_UnitID = 14; var dc_PublisherID = 189587; var dc_AdLinkColor = '#0000ff'; var dc_isBoldActive = 'no'; var dc_open_new_win = 'yes'; var dc_adprod='ADL'; </script> <script type="text/javascript" SRC="http://kona.kontera.com/javascript/lib/KonaLibInline.js"></script> <!-- Kontera ContentLink --> <script type="text/javascript">FB.XFBML.parse();</script><script type='text/javascript' src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-content/js/devicepx-jetpack.js?ver=201325'></script> <script src="http://stats.wordpress.com/e-201325.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> st_go({v:'ext',j:'1:2.2.5',blog:'8765469',post:'0',tz:'-7'}); var load_cmc = function(){linktracker_init(8765469,0,2);}; if ( typeof addLoadEvent != 'undefined' ) addLoadEvent(load_cmc); else load_cmc(); </script> <script id="aptureScript"> (function (){var a=document.createElement("script");a.defer="true";a.src="http://www.apture.com/js/apture.js?siteToken=6rCiDEj";document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(a);})(); </script> <!--Google Analytics Code --> <script type="text/javascript"> var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-5485845-1']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']); (function() { var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true; ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ?
