I can be reached via Skype by the email above and I love to chat with people about technical issues, but please note that if you do contact me via Skype, please include in the message that you are from HN.
I am a married man and get a lot of pretty women trying to connect with me on Skype, what can I say right. Anyway, I am quick to hit the block button on Skype due to the amount of scammers impersonating attractive women, that just want to chat with me and due to the fact that it is hard to explain to my non-tech savvy wife, why all these pretty girls are so interested in chatting with me. Putting HN in the request will slow down my block finger. I would hate to give the impression that I am rude, but it is a huge problem with Skype, so it is the only medium that I am quick to block request that I am not 100% certain of the origin.
