Geohasher from Lausanne, Switzerland. I live in 46,6 and work in 46,7 (when not working from home). I'm often around in #geohashing (see Geohashing IRC channel), you can also contact me through the wiki.

I maintain a "DJIA source", a SMS Geohash Service (not working currently) and a poster generation tool.

You can have a look at some geohashing-related items that I've designed.
