About

My name is Joseph Jacobs (Joe or Joe Jacobs for short). I was born and raised in Kajang, Malaysia (the centre of the universe!). Among other things, I like coding, electronics and football (soccer for the North Americans). I am a die-hard Manchester United fan and I have supported them since ‘95 which was before they started winning so, no, I am NOT a glory hunter!

You may know me from:

• SK Jalan Bukit (1), Kajang, Malaysia – primary school (Jan 1996 – Nov 2001)
• SMK Jalan Bukit, Kajang, Malaysia – secondary/high school (Jan 2002 – Dec 2006)
• Charlie Company, Kem Setia Ikhlas, Semenyih, Malaysia – Malaysian National Service 2007, 2nd batch (Mar 2007 – June 2007)
• Hammersmith & West London College, London, United Kingdom – ‘A’ Levels (Sep 2007 – June 2009)
• University of Bristol – BSc in Computer Science (Sep 2009 – present)

This blog has gone by a couple of different names over the years:

• Spitzbucket.com (August 2004 – 21 March 2005)
• HazardCell.com (21 March 2005 – January 2008)
