Colophon
About
nĭtens (Lat. for
sleek, shining, glittering) is the species taxon of a European ground beetle,
Carabus nitens L..
nitens.org is the name of the server that graciously hosts resources related to my work, in particular
research and
teaching activity,
web development and
editorial projects I am involved in. It is also home to a
photo portfolio, some geeky
advocacy materials, pictures of
my grandma Tersilla and
tips on cooking North Sea crabs, among
others.
Some technicalities
nitens.org is
invisibly run by
Wikka, a GPL-
licensed,
standards-compliant and
lightweight wiki engine written in PHP to whose development I
contribute.
