Home page welcome and recent blog posts
Welcome!
Hi! I'm Ryan, a Milwaukee area web developer that specializes in Open Source languages and technologies. Primarily, I enjoy working in the LAMP stack, especially with PHP, but my abilities certainly do not end there. Aside from daily development work, I administrate a full spectrum of servers and technologies that help a small to medium sized business run efficiently.
Below, are some recent posts of mine I hope you might find useful. I also have briefly documented some projects I have been (or currently am) working on, which can be found in my portfolio.
Cheers,
Ryan

Thoughts on the event and its presentations
Last Edited: Dec 09, 2011
What a great event at the Goodman Community Center! We saw some excellent stuff from Adobe, most notably PhoneGap, a platform giving us an ability to develop a single codebase and deploy applications to multiple mobile platforms. We saw some fresh features coming in the next (second) beta release of Zend Framework 2. Talks also included, upcoming features in PHP 5.4, code refactoring and continuous integration. Last, REST best practices finished up the day.
Certainly, this was an information-packed day of presentations and a bit of social networking too. Both equally valuable to developers, I encourage you to visit next year! For more on the event, hit the read more button below...
