My name is Frank Tobia, which is coincidentally my user name. I decided to become an active editor of Wikipedia in mid-October of 2007 and I've been having a blast ever since.

I'm interested in economics and science more broadly, Creative Commons and the FOSS movement, and to some extent general technology issues, intellectual property law, Getting Things Done, and related whatnot. I graduated Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 2009 and will soon be attending Georgetown University for a PhD in economics.

I also have an aptly-named home page, which is in need of a serious overhaul.
