Random requests by customers...

I was asked by a customer in New Jersey to do a currency converter from US dollars to pretty much any currency in the world...so I am experimenting with a few ideas, and the first was a regular expression to get some values from a string after I supply the amount and what currency I need it converted to.

Who am I?

I began writting code back in the 1980's with my Tandy 1000. Since then, I took classes at the University of Nebraska at Omaha, back in 1990. However, it was not until 1998 when I started to take programming seriously.
I am software developer (web site programmer) located in Omaha Nebraska. I use PHP and Javascript (AJAX) along with CSS. Typically, my focus is writing programs and I also have a great group of colleagues who help me when needed. I am not afraid to go against the grain, and welcome current trends.

What do I do?

Basic web sites, e-commerce web sites, complex dynamic web 2.0 web sites, and full blown web applications ( also known as cloud programming). If you have an excel document that your company uses, and wish you could all of your employees could share it, that's what I can do. I utilize Object Oriented Programming to allow your project to grow and scale upward with ease. From Simple web 2.0 web sites, and complex e-commerce and custom applications are what I do best.

My main goal is to provide software for small to medium sized businesses. I take your ideas, combine them with my experience to come up with new and innovative ideas for your project. I always want to continue to work on your software and improve things over time. Your feedback is encouraged.

For database development, I use MySQL. Its free, its flexible, and most of all it works!

In case you were wondering, I also have a long history using Flash and can program using the latest language, Actionscript 3 (AS3).

Why does it matter if you use me?

It matters because you want it done right and your input matters. I do not use a one size fits all method. There are companies who only use PHPcake, Ruby on Rails, Joomla, Wordpress and require you to fit in their mold. I will be glad to utilize any tool you want, or come up with solution that is 100% your own. I can and will use different frameworks depending on the situation. I encourage your input to complete your project.
