About me

My name is Ed Palumbo.

I've been recognized as "Hey you're Dot Ed from [website name here]!" more often than some members of my own family recognize me in public. [Example] I mean that in the most awkward and somewhat self flattering way possible. But I'm usually pretty modest.

Instead of just playing games I have spent 20 years studying every branch and trend in the video game industry and it's culture. I have a degree in Business Management, Organizational Behavior, and Leadership with focuses in Marketing and Philosophy.

I am the Creator and a Moderator of N+, the premier Nintendo group and #1 featured group on my.opera.

I get some questions about why my ICQ number is too short. That's because I've been doing this internet socialization thing since the early 90's and I think I downloaded ICQ in 1993/4. It's actually my number.
