My name is Einar Otto Stangvik, and I'm a programmer based in Oslo, Norway. I mainly develop applications and software architectures targetting C++ on the Windows platform, but I have also got experience doing the same on Unix and Linux. The last few years I've used C# a lot, but native C++ is still my main focus.


As of July 2008, I'm a Microsoft MVP for Visual C++.
