Firstly, an apology. This is my first post since June. Since then, I've been working pretty much non-stop, and as a result, I've not had much time to post. I intend to post more often, but I keep finding myself "on a mission" with some work related code. Call me a geek - I love my job!
Anyway, onto my post...
I love the web. I love seeing what can be done, and if I don't know how to do something, I love sussing out how it's done. I also love how much things have changed with web interface development over the past few years, specifically with client-side interactivity and web application design.
I've been working as a "web designer/developer" since 1995, so I've been lucky enough to have witnessed quite a few trends and developments, including being blown away by the original Flash 3 Gabocorp site (well, it blew me away anyway!), fighting in the "first browser war" (multiple versions of sites for different browsers anyone?), and writing a Flash video player, using SWF format flash video (FLV was a true godsend!), and I've always put as much effort as possible into learning the "latest thing" if it was in demand.
As a result, I've always been able to work on interesting or "cool" projects, from price comparison engines, online casino projects, personalised flash video management systems, and online travel booking applications. Most recently, I've been working as part of the Jobsite development team, on a new recruitment industry tool, soon to be released into public beta (Come back soon for more info).
Much of the aforementioned project is jQuery/AJAX based, and as a result, I've had the perfect opportunity to benefit from the incredible power of the jQuery library.
