User Persona

Damian Nguyen is a 45 year old asian male. He enjoys taking things apart and putting them back together. After every task he usually records his findings in a memo book for future reference. During his free time, he surfs the internet trying to find information on new and interesting developments in technology. He subscribes to every PC magazine and tries to stay updated on the latest hardware and software available. His favorite cable channel is TechTV and has the channel on all day and night. Damian considers himself a problem solver and a perfectionist. He tries not to "lock" himself in his house so he travels often. On his journeys he logs new experiences and takes lots of pictures for documentation. Damian can be very sarcastic at times. His ego gets inflated whenever someone compliments him for doing something well.

Damian's goal is to keep records of everything he does in order to refer back to the experiences later in the future.
