My name is J.P. and I work as a software developer for a living. My personal site exists for the sole purpose of having an outlet for my occasional creativity. Every now and then I get the urge to create something and when I do, this is where I put it. Thanks for stopping by!
Programming, playing basketball and snowboarding are the things that make me happy. I love the CakePHP framework, jQuery, design, and general computer nerdom. If you feel like getting in touch, feel free to say hello.
I guess this is a picture of me. I don't really have an "about" section. I'm just kind of filling space :)
Those are my last 7 "tweets"
Twitter music sharing service using the Twitter API, Last.FM API and oAuth. It was a lot of fun to create sogd.fm.
jQuery plug-in making it possible to have a background image resize with the browser keeping the images aspect ratio in tact.
jQuery plug-in to create dynamic photo galleries using Flickr. Plug-in operates off of a Flickr set-id and dynamically resizes itself to fit whatever container you put it in.
Photography portfolio for Casey Brevig Photography. Uses the Flickr API so Casey can manage his portfolio without having to call me.
Personal project combining the Flickr and Twitter APIs. Basically I have a Twitter account that dynamically serves up a "feeling" then searches for others that feel the same way. Incorporates Twitter search as well. Check it out.
My first and only Wordpress theme called Photominimal. I love playing with the Flickr API and this is a Flickr photo portfolio with Wordpress blog integration. It was intended to be minimal thus the name.
I love PHP, Ruby, jQuery, CSS, Javascript, XSLT, AJAX, UX/UI, and design.
While I love PHP and Ruby I have quite a bit of ColdFusion experience from working at my current job. Here are a few of the object oriented frameworks I have worked with:
Well, that's about all I have in me on the writing front today. I have more to say about programming, best practices, source control, documentation, and the likes but I'll come back around to that later. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great day.
