Portfolio

My CV is posted at Stack Overflow Careers.

• LinkDew

  Universal app for iPad and iPhone. View a gallery and slideshow of your friends’ Twitter photos.

• Northumberland Fold Universal

  A local news app for iPad and iPhone, available on the day iPad was launched.

• WhatVeggie

  A fun iPhone app that you take to the supermarket.

• Northumberland Fold

  This is a local news site that I am experimenting with. It runs on Google App Engine.

  Northumberland Fold is now available as an iPhone and iPad app.

• DVRPics

  My first iPhone app turns your TV with a TiVo DVR into a wireless photo frame for the pictures on your iPhone or iPod touch.

• Ganaraska Systems

  Recently I’ve been working with Ganaraska Systems on their GMS software, a solution for grain elevator management.

• Horizons of Friendship

  I created the Horizons site with PHP-Nuke in 2001, then re-launched in 2007 with a Wordpress design. Some custom programming was required, like making the old article URLs redirect to the new ones.

• Measuredmarkets

  The Measuredmarkets “Early Warning Service” tracks your stock portfolio and issues alerts when it sees unusual activity. I was hired to implement the entire process. This included two major projects:

  • Back-end process: Several C++ apps load today’s stock market data into a MySQL database, and run statistical calculations on the past 4 years of data. I wrote one Perl application for a task that did not require high performance. All of the back-end software runs once a day, after the stock markets close.
  • Web site: Investors can create accounts with this PHP-based site and access detailed reports for every stock on 4 markets. The site is integrated with WorldPay, who processes credit card payments.

  The live site runs on the Unix-based FreeBSD, but everything is cross-platform and works on Windows and Mac OS X.

The following web sites and applications may have changed significantly since I last worked on them.

• Ohpan

  My second iPhone app was created on contract for a client, AType Studios. Ohpan is an innovative news reader that finds articles and other kinds of media by automatically learning your preferences.

• Desktop client for Muiso

  Muiso is a service that remembers all the music you listen to, lets you give recommendations to friends, and more. As I write this, the service is still running, but no further development is planned. I wrote the software that runs on your PC or Mac and plugs in to Windows Media Player, iTunes, Winamp and several others. There was a Windows version written in C++/ATL, and a Mac OS X version, not released, written in Objective-C/Cocoa.

• Four Counties

  This PostNuke-based site is helping federations of agriculture in the province of Ontario, Canada.

• The Concert Hall at Victoria Hall

  I moved the Concert Hall’s events calendar into a custom PHP/MySQL system. They can log in from any browser and update their content in seconds.

• DowntownCobourg.ca

  The Cobourg Downtown Business Improvement Area used this site to plot the progress of a major reconstruction project. Currently it has a searchable index of all downtown businesses. Members can log in and manage their own listings with no HTML required. Administrators can manage the events calendar and all content on the home page through a simple browser interface written in PHP.

• Canadian Association of Internet Providers (Members-Only Area)

  Each member’s details are kept in a searchable index, where they can be downloaded directly into any address book that supports the vCard format. Members can share files by uploading them directly from their browser.
