- What, exactly, do you do?
- I'm currently employed at R/GA as a Senior Open Standards Developer. My primary focus is HTML, CSS, and JavaScript; however, I've also been known to dabble with other technologies such as PHP, MySQL, Python, Ruby on Rails, Flash/Flex, Photoshop, etc.
- What makes this site so awesome?
- I tend to rebuild my site from time to time based on whatever trends I'm currently interested in. For example, my site was originally coded using native PHP and MySQL. After working with Ruby on Rails, I became interested in the MVC pattern and rewrote my site using CodeIgniter.
More recently, Node.js has been the focus of my obsession. As such, the site is currently powered by Nginx, Node.js, and MongoDB. That's right; a tangled mess of callback chains has resulted in the site you are looking at. It's nearly magical. - Why did you think a big balloon would stop people?
- Shut up! That's why!
