About me

Ben Werdmuller — July 13, 2009

Here’s my official biography:

Future looks brightI co-founded Elgg, one of the leading social networking platforms. I also co-founded Curverider, the company created to provide commercial Elgg services, and served as both director and Chief Technology Officer before leaving to pursue other projects in April 2009. Over a five year period, I guided the software’s development and engaged with clients, developers and business partners. In 2007, having cultivated Elgg into a leading open source community, I helped Curverider become one of the few British open source companies to attract investment.

In my previous roles, I have acted as an editor for a ground-breaking web magazine, a learning technologist pioneering the use of social software in universities, and as an online administrator at the University of Oxford’s Saïd Business School. I have an honours degree in Computer Science from the University of Edinburgh.

Meanwhile, I’m also active on Twitter and Flickr, amongst others. You can also see stories I’ve shared on Google Reader.
