Me Online
although i have a real name, i have a couple of different names i have used 'online' over the years on various websites and chat networks.

legally, i'm called Garry Byrne. anyone on IRCNET will know me as Fuseboard. My general online name, and my real life alter ego is Bob O'Shady.

Bob O'Shady came about because i thought it sounded like a great name. i semi-threatened to make it my real name for many years, until i realised the anal-intrusions i'd have to suffer every time i went through an airport :)

i started using the nick 'Fuseboard' because when i first fired up mIRC over 10 years ago, i needed a nick and the first thing i laid my eyes on was a card of fusewire on the desk.

i can also be heavily connected with the term 'himum', which was my catchphrase many years ago, in my school days, and has sort of stuck with me ever since.

I've recently started writing reviews on a site called dooyoo...it's nothing special or particularily serious, I only make a vague attempt at English because I get credits every time my reviews are rated, and I'm getting close to redeemable country! take a peek, sign up (they don't spam) and give me some good reviews!

if you're looking to contact me via email, do so here.
