    About Me

    Jonathan Hepburn
    I have an Honours degree in Psychology and a Masters of Journalism but, owing to a surfeit of curiosity and a deficiency of self-control I am fascinated by evolution and other public debates in science, computer user-interface design, cool toys that go *beep* and songs that make negativity cheerful.
