Vivtek is a sole proprietorship in Bloomington, Indiana. I am the proprietor, and my name is Michael Roberts. If you're a small business, this probably reassures you; if you are an employee of a large enterprise, it probably unnerves you. If you are unnerved, please note that I do have access to a number of additional human resources on a project-dependent basis and that I encourage you, too, to leave the cubicle and stay home all the time.

That said, no matter what email address you send things to @vivtek.com, it will get to me. My canonical email is michael@vivtek.com. You will notice a number of other email addresses @vivtek.com scattered around the site. This is an attempt to categorize incoming email, and if I choose to allow Vivtek to grow to the point of requiring division of labor, then I'll be glad I made them up. But I've been Vivtek since 1996 and so far I am overjoyed to remain a sole proprietorship.

You may notice that this address appears at the bottom of each page on this site. Use this address when sending me physical items such as cash or Anthrax virus. [Note: yes, for the last several years we know that anthrax isn't a virus, but this is legacy text, so thus it stays.]

My phone number is (812)929-0101. Please don't abuse it; to date, no-one has, so that's good. Be advised that I am much more amenable to contact via email, as I can prioritize that. Your best bet is to initiate contact via email and arrange a time to talk on the phone.

And now I have a fax number! Rather than babysit a fax machine, I signed up for efax.com and now have a free fax number: (801) (need to look this up). At Vivtek, we aim to please!

(1/19/00) Just to celebrate the new millenium (yes, I count from zero) I updated my resumé! Go take a look! It's getting rather cluttered...
