St. Isidore of Modern Times

The patron saint of the Internet and computer users

This seventh century doctor of the catholic church was considered by the Pope to be the “greatest compiler of his time.” Isidore’s compilations were more of an encyclopedic nature (agriculture, etymology, & terminology) than of the ones and zeros that I’m used to.
