I'm Adam White. I'm a software developer and writer based in Niagara Falls, Ontario. For over 10 years I've produced content for and helped manage the online community of Punknews.org. At JMR SoftwareSystems I code in Java for the server side of our custom web applications. I write about social media topics for the Business Link newspaper and chat with Niagara businesses and creatives via SocialMediaNiagara.

As a speaker I've given well-received talks for the City of Niagara Falls, the Niagara Falls and Fort Erie Chambers of Commerce, and a number of businesses and service organizations. I'm one of the founding members of the Niagara Social Media Club.

This place: You're looking at a mixed media blog built with Tumblr. Here I'll be posting a random stream of images, music, links and other media that catches my interest.

I am so tired of debating if talent or heck content is enough because the names I mentioned in this video and many many more sure prove that is ISN’T!
