this blog aims to be a resource for those annoying problems and errors you get when programming and when you google it you get no help :( . oh and some comments, reviews and photos that i’m sure only family/friends will find relevant (or not)

work

I’m  a  java/jee developer or at least that’s what it says on the business card ;)   really I just develop what customers want via my the medium that is java. Along the way I try to design and build in performance, flexibility, scalability and various other cool sounding words ending in ‘ity’. Recently been working with JSF and consuming and exposing Restful web services.

I also enjoy investigating new technologies, platforms and frameworks that streamline and enhance the software development life-cycle.

You’ll also see I do a bit of web hosting (not personally! via a big web hosting company in London) give me a email if you’re looking for some cheap, quick and reliable web hosting.
