About
Jasper Goes
My name is Jasper Goes, 26 years old and originally from Amsterdam, the capitol of The Netherlands (Holland).
I was introduced to the internet as a young kid in 1994 and experienced the rapid development of the web as time went by. I started out with simple projects on my homebrew webserver in 1995, and created multiple websites before the age of 12.
By now, at 26, my never-ending interest for making fun and usable things, has led me to creating the My World GPS Tracker and it's web interface at LocationOf.com, mainly just because I could.
Currently, I am spending over 40 hours per week trying to improve the website, the mobile application, and the over-all user experience. Thanks to the ever increasing number of people who use the service, it's maintenance is now more of a full-fledged full-time job for me rather than a hobby grown out of control.
Although it's been a long time since I were even in the Top-100 of most-active users of the service, you can still always see where I am at, because I am still a fanatic user of my own product.
