Personal background


I'm 25 years old living in Helsingborg. I've lived here since summer 1999. I moved here from Ã…hus to study at Lund Institute of Technology, and I'm almost done with my B.Sc. in Software Engineering - just ONE course left which I plan to fix in a near future ;)

Currently working as computer support and I like it so far, although the salary could have been higher :)



My computers:

AMD64 3000+ / 1024MB / Windows XP

Celeron 900MHz / 384MB / Linux

Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home


Q: Why do you run SETI@home?

A: Of course there is extraterrestrial life somewhere, it would sure look wierd (although very cool) if we turned up to be the only living "creatures" in the entire Universe.


I think that we already are discovered by other species, but that they don't think that we're ready for such an encounter. When we will discover them could take a while due to our rather limited technology.



Q: What are your views about the project?

A: Well at least it shouldn't be a message like "respond to this message if you hear it"! :) I would suggest a brief history of our planet, and how the status is today. We could also attach some requests to fix some of our major problems such as the ozon layer.



Q: Any suggestions?

A: There are a lot of computer performance that is never used, and I think that this is a great way to use it. When everybody joins together in a project you get the computer performance way beyound every kind of super computer today, with which you can accomplish something huge. One example of this is to search for E.T.
Another nice project is the similar project where lots of people combine their resources in the search for a cure to cancer.



Finally, I'd like to take the opportunity to ask every Swedish talking fellow to jo
