Once there was a day, where I could not remember my nickname, so I signed up a second time and used the fact as my name: nick-vergessen (english: username forgotten). In order to avoid highlight problems in IRC and more, I use nickv as short version.
However, my former university generated usernames based on the real names, which is why I sometimes end up with schilljs, like with my domain.

Research Helper @ University of Stuttgart

While studying Computer Science at the university of stuttgart, I had to take part in a Software Lab, for which I joined the group around the eClaus, which is written in Java. My task was to understand the code base, improve its documentation and to fix some bugs. After the lab, I stayed in the team, and continued my work as a Research Helper.
