Mom! Dharma ate the north star!

I’ve been on the Internetz longer than most. My first account was with my high school, by way of UWM, in 1993. I’d gotten my first modem the previous Christmas, and I’d beenĀ  working my way through Mark G’s BBS list. Ahhh, those were the days…

Today, I r0xx0rz the .NET, Javascript (now with XHR!), CSS, XHTML, client service, Tommy-Training, Dan-Bashing, and a number of other really important and brilliant things for Versant. And then there is the PHP, etc. stuff I’m doing mostly for fun.

Briefly, some recent work [note: My man Ben and I had an interesting discussion related to how much detail should be included when a web professional includes team projects in his/her portfolio. I think we both came down on the side of as-much-detail-as-possible. On all of these projects I also contributed, as every team member did, to the various implementation decisions that must be made on these sorts of projects]:
