8] ~ www.sospep.com ~

8] let me take you on a guided 'backstage tour' of some of the FEATURES in this application to point out a few of the neat little techno tricks that you may not have seen at first glance,

  1. api integration - ( google maps, calendar, tinyMce, yahoo yql, ) 
  2. documentation - from FEATURE idea through to completed code, 
  3. mysql - dynamic db generation script, nested select qry 
  4. ajax - address book -  
  5. js-jq - 

9] ~ asp flavors ~

9] whats your favorite asp flavour or programming paradigm?  Just like ice-cream chocolate and vanilla are my 2 personal favorites. 
  1. asp.net webpages(www.vanilla.sospep.com), sweet, simplicity - 
  2. asp.net mvc (www.chocolate.sospep.com), sweet, deep, complexity - 
  3. asp.net web forms (www.strawberry.sospep.com), is the productivity gained by having a wide variety of pre built components at your disposal to build your web application appealing, how about the convenience of not having to really know/understand html to develop html applications, sounds good in theory but the disadvantages of this model make it much

10] ~ i am passionate about web application development ~

10] what this means for you is that I am generally aware of upcoming and developing trends in the industry long before they become mainstream practice as well as new and interesting technologies. Typically if it's something I find interesting or productive I will learn and experiment with it on my own.
