David Burn here. Thanks for dropping by.

I caught the internet bug in 1999, when I built my first site and realized what it meant from a publishing perspective. I needed a place to put my poetry, short stories, essays and journalism and I found it online.

Click for my Burnin' blog. Since July 2003 I've been writing about politics, place, books, films, architecture, the environment and the media. I used to cover music and advertising on Burnin' too, but now I have two other sites dedicated to those topics.

I also produce content at MySpace, Flickr, Twitter, HypeMachine, Last.fm, YouTube, Yelp, delicio.us, Tumbler, and Evoca.

I've been working a day job in advertising since February 1997. Today, I have a fancy title and a fair bit of repsonsibility. Before joining up with "the man," I worked in the environmental movement.
