William Gote is not my name, and there's little that pains me more than writing under anything but my real name. But I've been puzzling over how to present my siblings' & my digital nativities while taking credit for it and respecting what I see as their right to build their own respective Googlabilities for some time. At this point, I'm afraid it can't be done, so a pen name it is.

I'm 25 years old and have three siblings who are 11, 13, and 19 years old, respectively. We three eldest are males, and the youngest is our baby sister. I figure on Wiki'ing here about our four very different but interconnected digital nativities, that it may be of use to the project. I'll start out tonight with the most-basic of sketches and build from there.
