Atmospherian's Dev Blog

Hey There!

This is my new blog where i will be posting information, code and other cool stuff that i come across during my software engineering escapades.

I have a few projects in the works right now which i will blog about in the coming days as things slowly materialize.

My main areas of focus are C#, WPF/Silverlight, LINQ, SQL Server, J2EE, MySQL, ASP.NET and AJAX. One of my projects is a very ambitious cross-browser, cross-platform personal data aggregator and indexer. It will be comprised of a desktop application for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux, and Web site. One of the main challenges of this project will be figuring out the best language/platform that will offer the most code reusability but not limit the functionality or asthetics.

I am planning to use WPF for the desktop app on Windows, and i’ve recently discovered a XAML implementation for Java that integrates into the Eclipse IDE that works on Mac OS X and Linux, which looks like it will help with porting the UI to those platforms even if it means having to re-write the logic behind it…

I guess thats enough for a first post. As my thoughts on these projects form some kind of jelly like consistency, i will post more information, as well any other cool stuff i find along the way.
