Kaydoo

A Day in the Life of a Developer

About

Welcome to my blog. I have to admit I’m a bit of a late starter to this blogosphere stuff. I suppose before now I didn’t really have a use for one. Didn’t have many projects going on, just living life.

But as said, things change and here I am, and here is my blog. So I hope you enjoy it.

Who am I?

Let me introduce myself, I am Adam Price and am currently working for a software company called Logica. For many years now I have been using computers in some form or another. Before college I didn’t really have any reason to try and learn a programming language or develop anything. I first got into web development with a few projects with friends and instantly found I loved it. From there its just gone on and on. My expertise is in Web Development but currently have no paid commercial experience (I do it mainly for fun and a hobby). Having gone to the University of York I feel I have a good grounding in the world of computers and hopefully can pass some useful tips on.

What’s Kaydoo?

Kaydoo is a random name I invented and liked a lot. I don’t think it has any special meaning. Hopefully I will be releasing projects under the new name soon. A sort of branding as you put it.

What is the blog for?

As said before this is my personal blog. So expect to see lots of things which interest me and information about jars I currently have fingers in (Is that a well known term?). So what are my interests? Currently and for the past humpty dumpty years I have been very interested in web development. I’m more of a technical developer, but can dabble in the design side a bit. So expect to see some articles on web development here. The main reason for this blog is to track progress on projects I am currently undertaking. As of writing, that is currently BackendPro, my website administration application. I suppose this is going to be a more technical blog than my personal life (no-one cares about that anyway). Hopefully I will also be publishing some articles I find interesting on topics I care for. So look forward to some on PHP, CodeIgniter, jQuery and even possibly some Java and Ada. As said I consider myself more than just web developer.

Anyhoo I hope this blog comes in handy to people, enjoy.
