It has been a long time coming

I know it has a been a long time coming, but i figured I better get the ball rolling on this sucker as Brian Madsen has been kind enough to provide me with some blog space. Who should read my blog? To answer that question it may be worth just going into just what exactly do i do.

Well... I'm a consultant at Change Corporation in Perth, Western Australia and I specialise in designing and building UI's for Web Sites and MOSS portals. I find myself more an more frequently diving into the deep end in MOSS 2007 building everthing from custom web parts and features to Active Directory Write-Back timer jobs. I guess that's one of the benefits of having a bit of coding experience. 

Projects I have worked on include fully customised MOSS interfaces built from the ground up utilising AJAX that Brian Madsen has somehow managed to get working in IE quirks mode, Silverlight custom webparts, TreeView webparts iterating through folder based lists etc. It's pretty cool, and challenging, customising MOSS and thankfully there are heaps and heaps of great blogs out there to read such as Andrew Connell and Heather Solomon. Hopefully this blog can be one of them where I can dump all my findings here and save you guys/gals a bit of time.
