Blog Link

Created for LinkedIn's OpenSocial platform, Blog Link was designed to let LinkedIn users showcase their website content to everyone in their business network. Additionaly, users can quickly and conveniently scan through all of the recent posts created by their contacts. Using Asynchronous JavaScript, the utility reads RSS Feeds from a large quantity of websites and aggregates the most recent and relevant data for the viewer.

Blog It

Originally created as a Facebook Application, Blog It lets users post content to their blogs on popular blogging websites such as Blogger, Twitter, TypePad, Vox, Wordpress, and others from within Facebook. The goal is to allow the user to promote their blog posts accross Facebook and other popular "status" websites such as Twitter. An interface for the iPhone and iPod Touch was also developed.

Web Development Downloads

After getting a new computer, I needed to set up my development environment. I've done this many times in the past, so I know what I need, but it's always a pain in the butt to go find everything. This time, I decided to save all of the links in one place. Now I can refer to it again, or perhaps it will help someone else out there, too.
