Searching out the geek

Tuesday 24 November 2009 at 7:16 pm. Used tags: , , , , , ,

There is said to be a "genius in all of us". Well I'm not sure about that, but an overly neurotic technology-loving passionate geek there is in me for sure.

Developing since my teens in everything from VB to TopSpeed C my life's journey has crossed into many a venturous path, but the love of technology and development has remained constant.

Working as a self-employed consultant and senior solutions architect using a wide variety of technologies I hope to break all odds and actually start documenting some interesting facts, developments, and even solutions in this blog.

I'm currently working on a large enterprise project with some fantastic guys at an Oxfordshire-based company, spending time in my perfect technological playground with technologies such as MVC, NHibernate, Moq and StructureMap, not to mention a yet-to-be-announced peppering of genius from Rob Ashton with whom I have the pleasure of working with.

If you too are a self-confessed geek and enjoy my patterings, your comments are most welcome! :o)

There will have to be very strict guidelines, the last thing you want is dispute over “.. but you gave him 5 credits and her only 3?!” which will undoubtedly lead to the scheme being rescinded. That re…

Gary Ewan Park:

This is a very interesting idea! It does leave some questions about how it is “policed”, and who decides whether a particular blog post, or SO answer warrants the credits, but I really do think that i…

Chris Marisic:

Being both a developer and a leader of developers, I have found little to be as integral to the speed and success of software development as intellisense. This is also why I leverage R# on top of Vis…

I have to admit that Spark won me over very quickly, yes it is not perfect and yes I am not an expert in the subject but it has provided me with new skills. I have been a victim of its lack of intellis…

Randolph Burt:

Intellisense helps me code faster and make less mistakes. However, from a personal point of view, it can be the difference between enjoying development and not enjoying development – and if you don’t …
