About Peter

I'm an Australian, based in the Washington, DC, area of the United States. I spend a lot of time there with Jasmine, Australia's best-known speedsolver of the Rubik's Cube. Prior to the US, Jasmine and I were based in London, UK. We have also lived previously in the United States and Australia.

I have worked for an Australian business rules and compliance company since 1999 in Australia, the US and the UK. I have also lectured in IT and Law related topics at King's College, London, and at The Australian National University.

I have some more information and a list of publications available (pop-up window).

Andrew Inglis Clark and the evolution of the Australian Commonwealth

When I was back in Australia recently, I scanned a copy of my History Honours Thesis, 'Andrew Inglis Clark and the Evolution of the Australian Commonwealth' (PDF link).

I submitted it in June 1998. I was awarded the Mick Williams Prize for History at The Australian National University for my Honours year in 1998.

The PDF is a 2.25 MB file. I created it by scanning a hard copy rather than reassembling my old computer to retrieve the fonts I would need for a clean digital copy.

Gmail with your own domain name

Google has a beta program to host external organisations' email on its servers. The Gmail accounts can have the client organisations' domain name. Presumably, this will be part of a drive by Google to earn more revenue from sources other than advertising, which is currently the company's major revenue source (see this media commentary on Google's financial performance and revenue sources).
