Through the magic of LinkedIn; I've been in touch with an old friend of mine from Cyclone Commerce TJ. For the record, he is on the market looking for a C# Developer job; and I would give him 2 thumbs up to anybody hiring him.
Anyways, I noticed he posted a video resume and while a tad rough around the ideas I have to say kudo's to the novel idea. It shows innovation and the ability to think outside the box which is critical for our field.

Been away awhile, whats new?
Busy Busy!
It was mentioned to me that I haven't blogged in awhile and yes that is very much true. At my new digs at Ping Golf, we have been busy with a very large project of deploying our Business Automation software at our Japan facility. While a large project that involved tons of coordination and rework was actually a lot of fun; in some aspects it reminded me of my early days at ISV's.
I'd like to comment on something that is interesting. Way back in the early 2000's; we undertook a localization effort at SalesLogix. While the language was different (Delphi); the effort to localize in C# was very similar. One might have expected that over the last 8 years our industry would have learned something and made the process easier. Granted, we didn't have to worry about things such as AnsiString or the such; but the effort was *not* easier by any stretch.
