==Biography==
Farmer was born in New Jersey to Frank and Katherine Farmer, and grew up in Michigan. His interest in computers began as a teenager in 1974, as his Junior High School had access to a teletype. He played an early ''Star Trek'' game, Mike Mayfield's ''STTR1'', and learned that he could add modifications to it. He began writing his own games at Henry Ford II High School in 1976, and then ''COMUNI'', an early Bulletin board system.
In 1984, Farmer began working at Lucasfilm Games, on an Apple II version of ''Koronis Rift''. It was at Lucasfilm that he met Chip Morningstar, who was beginning design on the ''Habitat'' project, a groundbreaking graphical multiplayer adventure game. When the project received funding, Morningstar hired Farmer for the team, along with others such as Aric Wilmunder, Janet Hunter, Noah Falstein and Ron Gilbert.〔
After Lucasfilm, Farmer went on to found Communities.com, where he remained from 1993–2001. In 2003 he served as Community Strategy Analyst for Yahoo!, co-designing Yahoo! 360°. From 2009–2011 he was involved with Social Media Strategy Consulting for Answers.com, and in 2011 he founded his own company, Suddenly Social, to provide platform services for social and mobile games. In 2013 he began co-hosting the Social Media Clarity Podcast with Scott Moore and Marc Smith.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Social Media Clarity podcast )〕 As of 2014, he is a Social Media consultant for Rosenfeld Media.
