Web-developer job

Monday, March 12th, 2007

If you are a web-developer in Ireland, or willing to live here, and want to be involved in a public RSS project then drop me an email. We are looking for someone who knows CSS, XHTML and JavaScript. That means you can do it in a text-editor, not dragging-and-dropping in Dreamweaver. It means you either already do OO in JavaScript or are willing to learn. Ajax and all that goodness too. Experience, qualification etc. requirements are not set in stone, if we see the steely glint of a web-dev in your eye it will be good.

The project is FeedHenry at The TSSG.

Brian heads for the New World

Wednesday, July 12th, 2006

Cheers Brian

I just wanted to wish my mate Brian Delahunty all the best with his new position at Microsoft in the IIS team. He will be leaving Ireland for Seattle in the US. I am told he will have to relinquish all support of his beloved Kilkenny hurling team and instead have to support one of those funny American sports teams. The Seattle Mariners is it not?

All the best mate and make sure IIS7 is the bomb, OK? Cheers.
