SPWD

Obviously, it has been a while since I have posted on my blog. Quite simply after starting my full time employment contract I have not had time. Why? I am working long hours doing many new things – such as programming in Coldfusion and .Net.

I took on a position of web developer and have now setup 2 Linux servers, coded a C# .Net app from the ground up and am looking at major site updates using Coldfusion. While entertaining, fun and challenging, it has meant a bit longer days at work than I had anticipated – however I am NOT complaining in the least amount. I have a full time job and am paying bills and getting caught up on things. That’s always good!

The past week and a half has brought more changes – I was told we are going to look at revamping the entire site and work and will be doing it in VB.Net, so more learning, which is one of the things I love most about IT and web development – the constant learning, expanding and maintenance of knowledge. With that, we are looking at making it easier to get content out, expanding on and integrating more with social media and getting an infrastructure in place that will allow forward motion, expansion and easier maintenance. This also means a more enhanced visitor and site user experience, which is always something that is highly important.

The other thing of note, is that I will try my best as I go through Coldfusion and .Net programming to get some tutorials, how-to’s and other related posts up on those subjects. I will be learning quite rapidly and am sure to have some struggles to fight through, and those are the items I would like to post about.
