I'm Douwe Osinga, born in Haarlem, the Netherlands. After college I started Oberon, which is still going strong. The first travel startup I did with my brother was World66, now part of Wikitravel. After that I joined Google, working from Zurich, Hyderabad and Sydney. In 2011 I started the Berlin-based Triposo, another travel company. I started Neptyne in New York, a programmable spreadsheet that runs Python. That was sold to Block, where I now work on goose, while living at the beach.
I like to do stuff on the boundaries between technology and creativity. If Nietzsche wanted to be the philosopher with the hammer, today's hammer must be software, and code a decent way to think.
