This is my personal website It's a place for my daily log of all things interesting and notable as well as a place for employers to find my resume, it is also a place for me to display some of my creative and computing work.

"Who are you?" - my name is Jordan Koidahl. I graduated in May of 2001 from the University of Wisconsin in Madison with a bachelors in computer science. I am now living in the Whittier area of Minneapolis and looking for technical employment (see my resume) in the Twin Cities, that would involve software and/or web development.

"What's with the toilets?" - a couple of months ago, I was helping my parents remodel their bathroom. Part of the process was destroying their old toilet. I was using a hammer to break it into pieces. On my first swing a large piece of porcelain shot out and split my left index knuckle open. Later I found out that the accident caused "significant trauma" (different then a break) to my finger. I have been unable to bend that finger fully since...

"Why toilets in your design?"
- because it's cool..............because it's humorous.......... because it's art ............because it will eventually (as soon as my finger is 100% :) ) force me to come up with a new design motif.
