About Me
Daniel Andrlik lives in Madison, Wisconsin. He is (in no particular order) a writer, a programmer, a rabid reader, a sci-fi/fantasy geek, and a manager. A Buddhist, he studied religion with a specialty in the Hebrew Bible for six years, so if you are curious about it feel free to ask him questions, and he will do his best to keep it interesting.

About the Site
The Ministry of Intrigue has been in existence since October of 2004, and in that time has covered a wide variety of topics. From personal essays to commentary on the technology industry, with plenty of assorted geekery in between, this site has endeavored to entertain and inform its readers.
This site is powered by a number of custom Django applications, which has been a great experience in learning Python. This site also utilizes several applications from other people. Tagging is powered by the Django tagging application, and OpenID support is made possible by Simon Willison’s fantastic Django OpenID consumer.
This site is hosted by the always wonderful Webfaction, is served up by an Apache webserver via mod_wsgi and uses a PostgreSQL database.
Advertising
I am not currently accepting offers for advertisements on my site, but thanks for your interest.
In the past I have served as an Amazon and Think Geek affiliate, but I’ve recently decided that that this site shall be advertising free. I have gone back and deleted any affiliate links from this site and replaced them with direct links to product pages. I also do not use an affiliate link for Webfaction, although if you are interested in giving me credit for pointing you Webfaction’s way you can enter my username (dandrlik) as a referrer, although you don’t need to, and honestly I don’t expect you to either. I don’t link to them to make money, I link to them because I use them and like them.
