Areas of Interest (Robotics, Software Architecture, Green Energy, Web 2.0, etc.):
I am interested in Web 2.0 and all things web in general. My back ground is J2EE Architecture and Development using IBM WebSphere, Tomcat, et. al. My youngest son has a MindStorm, so now I'm working a bit with leJOS in Eclipse to program it in Java. My other son, is taking a C course at Clemson University, so now I have reached back into the archives and am doing a bit of C/C++ coding in Eclipse with him.
I've been in Hawaii since July 1, 2007. I've been a consultant since the 90's starting with Smalltalk and then moving to Java and Ruby. I've written a couple of books on IBM VisualAge for Java and IBM WebSphere. I've always been partial to the IBM Stack and still like using their tools. I love the Eclipse tool, created by IBMers, and am now heading up the Eclipse Hawaii User's Group (eclipsehawaii.org) in Honolulu.
Yep -- good meeting. It was great to get out and meet many of the faces I had seen here on TechHui. Maybe I'll move out of the Stone Age and use Eclipse for some stuff.
