SimplifyEm.com
JUST RELEASED! This is the newest addition to T-Rex global, to which I have definitely contributed the most - This is a web application for real estate investors which helps them keep track of their income/expenses throughout the year, and then actually produces a completed 1040 form at the end of the year. By far, this is the most "Web 2.0" site I've ever done, as it makes heavy use of AJAX and the Xilinus PWC, which makes for a crunchy good time! Anyway, those were the parts of this project that I was really behind, all the stuff that uses javascript windowing techniques, and awesome script.aculo.us effects, and AJAX; that's all me. SO PROUD!!
TrexGlobal.com and Realtaxtips.com
These two domains are a suite of applications for real estate tax investors. trexglobal.com and all it's sub-applications are written in ruby on rails, and realtaxtips.com is a highly modified version of the Pligg (like digg) open source cms. The company is run by Pankaj Shukla (CEO) and Narinder Sandhu (President), Pankaj is a former VP for Intuit's Small Business Division responsible for product strategy and development for QuickBooks and Quicken. Narinder Sandhu was Vice-President at Intuit’s Payroll Services responsible for its product strategy and development. While realtaxtips was written mostly by me, only a portion of my work is currently on the live trexglobal.com server, while the rest is pending release in development. Currently, I plan on working for trexglobal.com exclusively.
Mur.derlicio.us
This site is a beta release for now, mur.derlicio.us is a place where ruby programmers can test their skills by writing code that satisfy the requirements of ruby 'challenges'. The code is evaluated and scores are based on execution time and code length (shorter is better). This is a project i do totally in my free time, just for the good of the community, and somehting for bored ruby programmers to take a stab at.
Gary P Gilroy Publications
This is a custom eCommerce site done by me for GPGmusic.com. In this site I've also customized the shopping cart to make expandable and collapsing Ajax listing, as well as a full ajax mass mailer, and a full SQL site exclusivity management system. This ensures (for the bigger players in the music printing industry) that per site per concert no two bands will play the same music at the same competiton. With this site, GPG music has consolidated this data, their customer data, as well as readied themselves for their transition to being one of the most major players in their field. Job well done :) - contact Steve Martin -- steve ::at:: gpgmusic.com
ASU Bands Internal
Just finished writing/designing the new internal (members) site for Arizona State University bands. Although you can't really test it out yourselves (I only wrote the members-only section), you can check out the rest of the site! What I wrote is a customized Joomla CMS system specifically for the members of the band, such that Joomla would organize important band events, dates, and files and store them in a place all the members of the band could easily check-up on. This includes a customized calendar module for jooma which integrates with the regular ASU legacy calendar database (which I thought was pretty cool) - and also a FULLY customizable upload/download system for the members of the band, specifically so they could download new scores or forms as the instructor uploaded them, or even mp3 tracks!
YouForge
Youforge is an open-source, general purpose forge site written in Ruby on Rails. With it, you can turn your base application into a fully communally extended application – and this can be the power behind your community. With Youforge, software community building is made easy! The title will link you to the rubyforge community page, where you can download the latest source code and read the current documentation. This, of course, is only a precursor to my next project (or, my current project) the NEW Adhearsion.com - which will use youforge for a large part of adhearsion extensibility! A developer's best friend..
eSiteBid.com
Once again a new favorite! This is a scriptlance clone designated less for scripters only but for jobbers in general. This site uses Joomla as a framework, which i built the bidding interface on top of, in a series of new joomla components which I've written just for this site. I have also linked this site with google maps, so a user can literally choose their jobs from a satellite picture in the sky - check it out!!
Alpengasthof Bodenhaus
