About me

My name is Ed Palumbo. A lot of people know me as .ed or "Dot Ed." I keep myself submerged in emerging tech culture. I have a degree in Business Management, Organizational Behavior, and Leadership with focuses in Marketing and Philosophy.

In MyOpera, 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.
