Hi there.

Welcome to Daniel Beck dot net, your source for all things Daniel and Beck.

I’m Yet Another Indie Web Developer™ — so if you’re here about that sort of thing you probably want to be looking at the portfolio.

There are lots of photos here, most recently Big Things in America. I don’t really know how to paint, but that doesn’t stop me trying. The most popular part of the site is the Burning Man photos, because that’s where most of the nudity is. I’ve also got a blog, because who doesn’t these days, and every once in a while I write (or write about) software. Enjoy.
