Lou Burnard: his home page

This is the 2009 version of my home page, stripped down from its former verbosity to the bare minimum collection of links elsewhere.

I have had some sort of web presence for longer than the average hot dinner, so you'll probably form as good an impression of me by asking Ken Google as you would by reading anything I might propose.

For the record, though, I have worked at Oxford University Computing Services since, gasp, 1975 which means I have seen a lot of digital humanities projects come and go. I still do stuff for the British National Corpus and the Text Encoding Initiative. This year, they're letting me out to work halftime with a cool French project.

This website features mostly material of mainly historical (if any) interest, e.g. my family tree, some work in progress, some proto-bloggery etc.

And here's where I'd rather be:
