Ye Olde Home Page

Hello! My name is Ameel Zia Khan and this is my home page. You can find the following here:

*All about me*
	My latest resume (or take a look at my LinkedIn profile)
	My personal blog, Random Tangent, and my professional blog, ACME
	Much more about me from the social media point of view (including where else you can find me online)
	My now-archived MBA Journal
	A regular and a detailed write-up about what has been going on in my life recently
	A collection of family (and extended family) photographs
	The Many Faces of Ameel, all thanks to Mahmood and his then-new mobile phone
	And a bit about my avatar upgrade

Personal stuff I've done or I maintain

Some personal and commercial songs I've composed

Some short stories I've written

My Page o' Links (that has been around since 1996!)

A bit about Corduroy, the band I was in, and an archived copy of the site I created for Corduroy; also the entire album is now available online

Some of the presentations that I've given over the years (the older ones are still mostly relevant):

1.	A slightly technical presentation on "Computer Network Security Basics" (94kB PowerPoint slide show) to the LUMS-ACM Chapter in 1999
2.	A less technical presentation on "E-Security" (127kB PowerPoint slide show) to Thames Business School in 2001
3.	An introductory presentation on "Open Source Content Management Systems" (503kB PowerPoint slide show) to the attendees of the OSRC's second Open Source Software Conference in 2004
4.	An IT manager focused presentation on "Free & Open Source Software" (1.48MB PowerPoint slide show) to the MBA Information Strategy class at Melbourne Business School in 2007; also, here's the presentation handout (73kB PDF file)


*Non-personal stuff I've done or I maintain*
	An attempt at a tribute to my mother, who passed away in 2005
	Some wedding song lyrics
	I used to compile, maintain, and host the LUMS Alumni Class Notes for BSc '99 but, thanks to the Internet, those are now being maintained in a wiki on Wetpaint.


*Other stuff*
	Some random, interesting stuff
	Patrick Smith mentioned me by name in his 25 March 2005 edition of Ask The Pilot!
