A Few Content Updates
I just wanted to leave a quick post about a few content updates that I have finished for webnelly.com.
First, after launching Maui Wall Candy, I added information about the site to the Personal Portfolio section. While I was making changes there, I decided to go back and update/finish details for all the previous sites in the section, making it a little be more expansive.
The second update is for the Professional Projects page, which was one of the more recent additions to the site. It features some high level information about projects I have worked on in my professional career using a range of Microsoft technologies. I thought it was somewhat worth mentioning because it is almost the other end of the spectrum with technologies I use for sites in my portfolio. I sometimes like to call it my double life.
The Professional Projects page currently lists details of 18 projects that I have been a worked on in the past 7 years. It covers three different phases of my career so far: when I started as a developer, my 3 years as a development manager, and most recently going back to the lead developer role.
Lastly, I added a Contact page as a link off of the About Me page. I wasn't feeling very inspired to write the form logic myself, so I decided to put up another EmailMeForm as I did for Maui Wall Candy (which wouldn't allow me to write my own form handler).
Next Steps
One of the final pages there that really needs my attention to finish is the Technology section. While my initial goal was to maintain a list of technologies I've used on the first page and link to more detail pages with examples for each, I have had a hard time finding time to get that specific. I know content is king, but I might start with a prince instead and just have the details and links to examples on the first page and come back to add the details later. I can probably add a few new links to the Links page as well.
Also, with my recent work on Maui Wall Candy, and with looking at various people's photography portfolio sites, I was inspired to start my own. It's going to feature details about my recent interest in photography, gear and software I use, and where to find my photos. Right now, the two main spots are Flickr and Maui Wall Candy, but there is a few opportunities to branch out my photos into more places as well.
Stay tuned.

Be ware of using emailmeform!!!
One of emailmeform owners, James Salganov, is a dishonest person. He purchased the website from Alexandru Marias, and sold it to Harrison Hung, without paying the money he was to pay to Alexandru Marias.
The conflict between James Salganov ( past owner ) and Alexandru Marias ( developer of the service who has not been paid ) might affect the site badly, as there is a bigh trust issue in the middle
We are happy to announce a new management team at EmailMeForm.com!
EmailMeForm™ has long been a valued service that allows anybody to create functional web forms on any website. Unfortunately, the previous management had not invested in continual improvement to the EmailMeForm™ service throughout 2009. The lack of a solid working relationship between the past owner and the former head developer lead to a cold war that eventually forced the sale of the site to our dedicated hands.
Not surprisingly, the relationship problems continue to spill over even after the service has already been transferred over to new hands. The new management cannot heal these old wounds. We are already pulling long hours to take EmailMeForm™ to the next level. Most of these improvements are not readily apparent to you as we are working on renovating the foundations of the EMF house.
Regarding privacy issues and your form data: EMF will never abuse or sell this information to Third Parties. The previous owners, who may have copies of the database, are legally liable if this information is inappropriately used. Should an infraction occur, you can be assured that EmailMeForm™ will work toward a resolution.

Happy Holidays and looking forward to 2010,
EmailMeForm™ Team
