Hey Everyone,
Happy Easter. Well it has been all go this week. Writing more intricate code, responding to client feedback, making adjustments to my master CMS system, it has been all go. I would say that it has been a successful week.
I am on the verge of wrapping up a large project that I have been working on since November last year. "Steves Family Restaurant" is a small home grown business who required a unique website. They wanted to advertise with banners and text ads, they wanted to construct their menu in the administrative panel with drag & drop functionality and they wanted full content management. They wanted to add meals to a calendar that could then be displayed on the front-end for the clients to read or print.
The result is DineAtSteves.com. It has been a challenging site, but with that came many opportunities. It has pushed the limits of my abilities and allowed me to broaden my experience as a programmer. Not something you should take likely, you should always grasp these opportunities with both hands, the rewards are always worth it for us programmers.
I am making time to read again, something I have been less enthusiastic about doing. I figured that I need to enhance my knowledge further, as these additional skills could become the difference between getting a job or not. I signed up with Goodreads.com, so I can share my books and progress with any interested parties. Some good will no doubt come it, just need to find the time. I really must buy myself an Amazon Kindle, so I can read at leisure and not at the computer screen.
That is all for now, I will be back next week to share some more thoughts with you all. Have a great week.
