Many people have pointed out that this is the page that comes up if you google "Christopher Litsinger", this old and dusty corner of my site appears. As such, I've dusted it off a bit (as of Dec. 2005). But remember, it's a secret to everybody
Christopher Litsinger is the author of the interiority.org web site. You can contact me at
My name is Christopher Litsinger, which you may very well have deduced by now. I currently work for a large international law firm based in Philadelphia. I do some programming- both for professionally as a hobby. I write code in C, Delphi, Perl, and PHP, among other things. Take a look over at the geekstuff page to see some of that.
When I'm not at work, I live in Cherry Hill, NJ with my wife, daughter, son, dog, four cats, two rats, and a few fish. In order, their names are Elizabeth, Tuesday, Quinn, Coco, Meridian, Kit, Kat, Boo, Super Dennis Drinker, Rat, Fish, Fish, Fish, and Fish.
I guess it's pretty obvious from the site, but my hobbies are primarily computers and photography. I also read more than anyone I know (click here for a list of people offended by this statement) and occasionally tell myself that I have to learn how to play the guitar. I'm a vegetarian, and enjoy discovering the many cheap and excellent sources of meatless food available in Philadelphia. If you would like to recommend one, let me know, I'll meet you there for a bite.
By my count, this site is now on it's 3rd design (not including countless small iterative changes). The original site was written almost entirely in vi. At the time it seemed like a good way to learn how to deal with text files on unix systems. I guess it worked, because I still often use vi (I'm typing this in vi now) for site maintenance, although sometimes I use ConTEXT on a windows box which is a fairly nice product. I've used PHP to build the journal and geekstuff sections. It's a simple system based on text files (which makes it easy to move the site around to cheaper providers, and you can download the source for that in the geekstuff section.
The photo galleries are done using the very nice gallery package- I've stuck with version 1 so far for the same reasons the journal system is text file based. The photos were mostly taken with a Nikon D70 with a variety of overpriced, oversized lenses and other accessories.
Most of all, the site was made possible by television, which is so unwatchable that I manage to work on the site once in a while in spite of my TiVo, and Elizabeth and my children, who remain at least partially tolerant of my bad computer habit.
