I don't buy into using this place as a way to improve my (social) networking or job interview chances. I answer questions because I like the subject. No linkedin or web addresses here.

As for my background, I started programming in 1980 and haven't stopped since. Predominately a front end developer (out of choice, it's the closest experience I can get to the old 8-bit demo scene) my back end technologies would be MS/.NET rather than LAMP.
