About me

Location	Chesterfield, United Kingdom
Introduction	I'm a software engineer with a very wide experience of languages and both high & low level programming of PCs. I've worked with everything from DMA access of the AdLib sound board through QB4.5 in DOS to WCF through C# in Vista, not to mention reams of experience of other technologies such as .NefCF, EVC4, SQL, JavaScript, PHP and various scripting languages. I learn by doing, and prefer to use the wealth of information online to expensive books. For every book which recommends a methodology, there's one which demonises it. Currently I work in an "Agile" team, though sometimes we are less agile than others and sometimes the "agile" ideal doesn't really fit with what we need to achieve.
