Let’s start off with an introduction. If you made it here, you most-likely already know who I am. With a previous employer, my responsibility was to manage various web projects; which includes, the project management, personnel management and the actual higher level programming required. I’m still in the industry, but no longer am employed by a web hosting firm. Enough about my past, please allow me to explain my experience.

I started out building projects using Coldfusion and picked up some fusebox along the way. Since I started in the industry, I’ve advanced my knowledge of coldfusion to include object oriented programming, in that case using Coldfusion Components. I also started using Javascript; including the prototype and scriptaculous libraries to integrate many advanced features, such as Edit in Place, AJAX, etc.

After a while, I started looking into other frameworks. I found that Ruby on Rails has a substantial advantage to programmers looking to build using O.O. (Object Oriented) Theory. This was a great framework for smaller applications, but found that in larger scale applications it requires more overhead. I had a lot of difficulty with garbage collection.

I now primarily build in PHP, using classes and functions for content management. While with Coldfusion, I was using SQL Server 2000; I now primarily build using MySQL as the database server. I also build using table-less HTML to meet w3c standards that require tables to only be used for tablular data.

Well, thats enough of an intro on me. As time progresses, I’m certain that everybody will learn a lot more about my talents and experience as I look forward to sharing those details. If you found my support helpful, please help our sponsors out through the google ads as they help to cover our hosting fees. Both myself and the companies appreciate it!
