From small acorns...

I've had this blog registered for a while now, and I've finally got around to dropping some content. What's JABOC all about? It was a phrase that I coined with a few colleagues back in the early years of .net. Basically it tries to express that the hardest part of development is the requirements gathering / spec interpretation / clients moving goalposts etc. Once you know the architecture, and the form / function of the application, the rest (the easy bit) is just a bit of code. As a developer it's what we're supposed to be good at.

What's the blog going to be about? I'm a web developer, and I mostly use microsoft technology, so there's going to be a lot of that, and some other gadget / geek / tech stuff, as and when.

I've been lucky enough to work with some really good devs recently, in a scrum environment, and hopefully some of their focus on productivity has rubbed off. It was inspiring stuff.
