Project Tacoma

January 26, 2008

.: After spending literally years developing portalUWO, I've finally decided to undergo the great porting of it to my own platform. Just short of 11,000 lines of sql to convert from tSQL to plpgSQL, along with about 20,000 lines of ASP to convert to PHP. It's a huge project. All I can do is take it piece by piece, function by function.

.: I've gotten the main UI mostly done: module creation, portal module placement and movement, and theme creation. But I still have a long way to go. I still need to make login scripts, application placement and an administrative console. Like I said, piece by piece, she'll come together.

World Council of Credit Unions - Project Missouri

September 10, 2007

.: Project Missouri is starting up. Yet another contract with World Council of Credit Unions (WOCCU). Though the details of the project are still under an NDA, I do get to learn something new: Credit Card Processing. This is a step in the great web world that I have always dodged. I've made every piece up till and past the actual processing, and this time I get to do that as well!

.: I'll post some updates after the project is rolling and the NDA goes away. Which all should be soon. As a fun side note, this project gets to use at least one part from all my other contracts with WOCCU. So I'm excited.

Full Time

November 24, 2007

.: I guess I start a new chapter in my professional life. I have my first full-time position. World Council of Credit Unions has officially offered me a full-time position as a Web Software Developer. I'm so used to just being a consultant, that full-time is going to be weird for me.

I'm sure I'll get used to the a steady paycheck though. Thank you to all those who have had the privilege to work for in the past. Not it is my turn to make a true mark in the world.

A New City

September 10, 2007

.: I got to travel up to Seattle to check out the city. I'm considering a move to that area and I wanted to know what I was getting myself into. Needless to say, I'm excited to pack my stuff up and move out there. There was a great sense of style and a vibe I could completely get behind. The city was enamored with cool little spots and neighborhoods. Everyone felt like the city wasn't so much a city as a collection of of small towns.

.: I still have some time left here in California, and I was happy to call myself an Californian for a short time as well. This state in the end was both a huge success and a mild disappointment. I was expecting so much more, and though I may have been the limiting factor, I will be glad to move back here in the future.
