The Author
A web-designer, a programmer, a keen traveller, an amateur photographer, and a conscientiously-living person with a humble wish to add my tiny contribution to making my home country of Australia and the rest of this world a better place.
If something on this website resonates with you, I will be happy to hear from you.

History
This website was created many years ago, within a different domain, as an outlet for my web-design and web-programming experiments. Over time it also became a means of sharing my thoughts, reviews, interests, small software tools, utilities and articles that turned out to be very popular and useful to many people. Making them freely available is an attempt to return some goodness back to this world for all the free, helpful and useful things other people created and made available to everyone else, including myself.
A historical fact: for a long while in the past, searching for “Anny” in any search engine was bringing out only one result — my website. Which means, you are currently on the website of the first Anny in the Internet. It is almost like the first human on the Moon, except that the Internet seems to be far more important to the mankind these days. ;)
Support and Donation Options
If you enjoy using my software, designs, pictures or anything else from this website, and wish to make a donation, I sincerely appreciate your gratitude and support. As I don't have a PayPal account or any other widely-used way of accepting donations, you can do one or more of the following:
- Visit the partner website SoftPerfect.com and try the apps that you are interested in.
- Support an organisation dedicated to protections of civil liberties and privacy. Without them, our society faces a very bleak future. If you don't have the opportunity support these organisations financially, you can still aid their work by becoming aware of the issues surrounding privacy, human rights and freedoms, and by sharing that information with your family members, friends, colleagues and through social media.
- Support high quality journalism or any objective, unbiased, fact- and research-driven media in your country. This is crucial for a free, fair and democratic society.
- Contact your local Member of Parliament or the relevant government minister to raise your concerns and objections regarding the erosion of privacy and human rights and the spread of surveillance, especially when a government legislation or institution is involved. In a democratic society, it is the citizens' duty to alert the government when it is taking the wrong course.
- Help the environment. Any good deed matters — big or small. You can make this world a better place by doing simple things: recycle everything that can be recycled, rethink you consumer habits and reduce waste, tidy up and clear rubbish in your area, plant a tree, or donate to a non-profit organisation that protects the nature and strives to make a difference.
