I am thrilled to join the Web of Trust team and will do my best to help it reach new heights. My years at MySQL have taught me the power of user-driven services, and I appreciate and value the contribution that each of you provide to the Web of Trust community by rating and commenting on websites! I am actively using WOT myself and actively encouraging people I meet to try it out and become a part of the WOT community! Together let’s make the Internet a better place!
