About

My name is Matthew Langham and I’m the CTO and founder of Indiginox. Indiginox is a consulting and services company focusing on Open Source and Web applications. We are also active in the mobile and media space.

I try to keep my CV updated.

I was born in Faringdon UK in 1964 and moved to Germany in 1976 with my parents. After school, I joined Nixdorf in Paderborn and worked there until 1991. In 1991 I joined a small startup in Paderborn that subsequently grew from a handful of people to now well over 100 employees in total. I spenat 6 years from 2000-2006 building an Open Source group within S&N. I then left S&N in 2006 to form Indiginox with a friend and former ex-boss.

I have authored a couple of books and quite a few articles on subjects ranging from Apache Cocoon to REST based Web services. I seem to have less time to do that now though.

I started blogging as “The Silent Penguin” back in early 2002 but my blogging efforts dwindled during late 2007 and 2008. I started using Twitter at an early stage but now that 2009 has arrived, I feel that it’s time to get back into blogging.

Welcome.
