What types of projects does ddd do?
I specialize in enterprise stuff, but I also do e-commerce, community sites, internal data-management tools, and all sorts of personal content management systems (CMS) and online portfolios.
As a programmer, most of my jobs are developing software for the web. Those of you seeking high-concept visual design and branding, you are still in the right place. I have a large pool of extremely talented, professional, graphic-designers and artists with whom I collaborate regularly. Click here for more info on designers.
For a list of my current designers and links to their work please contact me directly.
http://www.zxonex.comZXONEX
ZXONEX is a politically-focused online-community monetized by the sale of advertising space.
ZXONEX is a Ruby On Rails application. Primary development was done on Rails 2.3.2. It is hosted on a VPS with a Mongrel cluster proxied by Apache. Database is MySQL.
The client side is valid XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS 2.1. jQuery is used for the Dom-Scripting and AJAX.
ZXONEX began as a code review for Adam, who found me on Craigslist. After the review, it was clear that ZXONEX had been afflicted by, the very common, bad-developer-syndrome. We decided to start from scratch. Adam and I spent our discovery phase translating his innovative vision of a politically-focused online-community into a functional specification and development plan.
Some of ZXONEX’s feature highlights include a fast and granular search engine powered by Thinking-Sphinx and YouTube-like video uploading and encoding.
http://www.creditdesk.orgCredit Desk
Creditdesk is an online tool for reporting your own, good credit activity. After submitting activity, such as payment of a monthly bill, data is reviewed and verified by an accredited [credit agency]. Credit reports are made available to approved, credit-lending institutions.
Credit Desk users pay a monthly charge lenders pay a fee for the generation of reports. All funds are collected on site through an online payment gateway.
The Credit Desk project began as a code-review for Yoshi and Jake. The site had been partially built but had run into trouble because the chosen technologies were deficient and unable to realize the full functional requirements.
Yoshi and Jake agreed to begin a formal discovery phase, even though they had already spent time and money documenting the needs of the site. Almost immediately, a clear picture of the site’s functionality and interfaces came into being, and we were able to identify and resolve many development issues before coding began.
Development of the Credit Desk application continues as we optimize this innovative and timely online resource.

PDAM is an web based, internal tool built for Plum TV to manage their extensive inventory of video files.

PDAM was developed Ruby on Rails 2.2.2. The client side is valid XHTML 1.0 Strict with hand-rolled, unobtrusive JavaScript and AJAX. The search engine is Sphinx.
PDAM was designed to be lightweight and scalable in anticipation of expanding it’s functionality.
