Longest Job:Currently a PhD Student in Lancaster University I have worked on many PHP websites (hasn't everyone?) and quickly decided to prefer Java in my paid work. I moved to the Spring WebMVC Framework and Jetty whenever possible. I have written applications for iPhone and BlackBerry with the back-end work based on PHP (at client request, Joomla CMS is a favourite) or Spring if hosted on my servers. Besides this core I have had success in the implementation of hardware and microcontroller based projects and have implemented a Java Virtual Machine that can run in 8KB of RAM on a PIC24F and Philips XA Series Processors.

Development of an iPhone application to show various quotes and references from the bible for a diocese was my first iPhone project. After that I proceeded to develop a more complex application for the identification of offers related to a club card. This project was more involved and included map overlays (for the in-built Google-maps application) and searching a REST-style Ruby-on-Rails application already developed by the client.
Existing website converted to use Content Management System (Concrete5/Clipper). Some social networking integration (twitter) later removed as not fitting client requirements in the way they expected.
Interesting technical development: OpenID v2.0 was not supported by Concrete5 at the time, we developed a patch and submitted it to the project and it is included with on qpconline.co.uk.
QPC were more than happy with the work done and with the training and help provided. I have always found Ben to be professional and helpful with any queries we have had.
