Hey, I'm Matt Nichols. Welcome to my personal site, the fourth in a lineage that started over three years ago. People have asked what the significance of "Continuum Six" is, and I usually remark that it is in the eye of the beholder. I came upon the name in the summer of 2009 when I was brainstorming titles for a hypothetical future business venture, and I bought the domain when I realized that it was available. For now, it's a catchy name for a personal site, though devoid of contextual meaning. Maybe, someday, I will build something around it to give it semantic significance.
So what is the purpose of this site? Mainly as a place to share my "assorted endeavors," the things that I make and do. On my Made page, I have made public the things I have constructed using technology, including websites, software, and various other things. I also have a page of cool things that I find, from oft visited internet haunts to more obscure, interesting things. In my Profile there is (or will soon be) some information about my past and present as a student, employee, and citizen, and also means of contacting me if you have questions or comments.
Also, on the right there are several graphical links to organizations I am involved with or support. These will likely change on occasion, and are probably a decent weathervane for my primary associations online. I have a couple more to add before I consider the list contemporarily complete, but this is a good start.
The last icon, a cup of coffee, is not related to an organization per se, but rather the option for you to give me a small amount of money via PayPal. I actually see little reason for you to do so, but if you like what you find on this site, it would be great to have a bit of help paying for the hosting. I am, after all, a poor college student, and a little extra money will expand my caffeine budget by that much, which could help me get the A which helps me get the job which helps me change the world. Ideally. Thanks for considering.
Notice: This site is still in development. I have several more things I want to do with it, and these shall hopefully be enacted within the next couple weeks.
Thanks for visiting!
