It looks like I've got an entry in the wikipedia!

Except, it isn't me. Oh well, no big deal. Googling moi gives me quite a few hits, even more when you spell me Nik and not Nicholas or Nick or even Nicky as my nan insisted on calling me for far too long.

As a guide, I'm not Nik Cain american wrestler, nor Nicholas 'Nick' Cain 60's TV government agent, nor August Nicholas Cain, 19th century sculptor, nor Nicholas Cain Kirven who's a poor soldier who recently died in afghanistan.

Unfortunately, I am the Nik Cain who writes stupid questions to programming forums (why do these things hang around forever!), and makes telescopes (one silly page which I asked another telescope maker to link to, and several years later it is listed everywhere!), and so consequently more stupid questions on telescope making that I posted while making the stupid thing (it's not stupid really, but I haven't seen a star here in Paris for 5 years now), etc etc.

Anyway, it did make me realise that as I'm so bad at keeping in contact with anyone and everyone (good job my parents know my phone number!), I should make my own googling landing page. In other words, list my name a load of times plus the things that I do and where I've lived etc. Then if someone googles for me, they should find me. There must be a name for a page like that?

Anyway, once I've done it I'll stick at the index page of this site I guess. Let you know when that happens (don't hold your breath)...
