I'm ben+perlmonks@stupidfool.org.

I'm CTO and co-founder of Six Apart, makers of Movable Type and TypePad.

I put some time into writing these responses:

• Cryptogram Generator Algorithms
• Database Object Storage
• Explanation of Tricks with tr///
• Whirleygig with Closures
• References and Symbol Tables
• Tricks with DBI
• Web Logs Using DBI
• Using can With Inheritance
• More Mad Libs
• Perl Object Oriented Meta-Tutorial
• Objects with Private Variables
• Tie: Creating Special Objects
• CGI.pm Caching and Persistence
• Fun with Tied Arrays - a silly hack, but still enjoyable
• Object Comparisons - using Storable
• Flipped Hash Using Tie -don't know if I like this one as much, but I'm a sucker for tie
• Explanation of a JAPH
• Filehandle Filter - read the whole thread
• Silly::Die - completely useless, but fun all the same

I've contributed a lot of modules to CPAN. Here's my list of modules.
