## BIO My background is in managing yacht charter organizations so I'm experienced in business, hard work and long hours. I often found myself teaching, both in the classroom and on the boats. Often as not I'd finish late at night after maintaining our software or revising our maintenance manuals. Oh yes, and I enjoyed years as a headhunter for computer people. I really appreciate hard work and reliability in others so I provide the best and most professional service possible. I've designed and developed a number of web sites. Among them: a design and hosting site, a link-checking site, and a MySQL-based bed-and-breakfast directory with a modified blog on the first page. I developed the PHP shopping cart, the event/booking calendar and the content-management system used to construct and maintain all three of these web sites. I've also designed and built a number of data gathering applications. One long-lasting application downloaded new resumes from a job site every day several years and added them to a database. So, how can I help you? ## Area of Expertise * PHP scripts with MySQL database integration * Online (server) pdf generation scripts in PHP * Javascript, especially with PHP * ASP and Coldfusion development * AutoIT3 desktop automation solutions including Skype API applications * Flash animation * AWK parsing tools * server-side PDF form and brochure generation * web design and maintenance * web site evaluation and critiques and link checking * eCommerce shopping carts; installation and development * database design, especially online catalogs * desktop tools for Vista (32 and 64-bit) and Windows XP (including 64-bit applications) * custom data parsing and extraction scripts * data mining scraping and spider program development and maintenance * documentation and user manuals; online and print * original article, content and sales letter writing * web and script maintenance * asterisk private branch exchange (pbx) scripting and OEM IP phones * We're the "Scriptors Extraordinaire"
