Programming reefers?
 
If you're a reefer on the boards and programs on a regular basis speak up :)

What do you mainly specialize in and how long have you been doing it?

myself I'm an entry/intermediate level dot.net programmer, I'd say, for about a year now. I've been learning ADO.net lately and I'm working on a POS application for my fiance's small business for experience. I'm planning on a career in programming of some sort now that I've finished my degree.

My degree is Comp Sci and at the time I specialized in things like visualization, modeling, and animation. One of my first jobs was working in the Human Performance Lab working on a project to film motion tracking balls on models wearing various athletic shoes to quantify the stresses on joints. Neat stuff, but that was then. Now, I work on more pedestrian stuff, although I guess it's interesting in its own right - I work with realtime controls and data acquisition for various industries - mainly pipelines (oil, gas, liquid products, water, waste water) and some electrical transmission and traffic and weather and health care of all things.

that's pretty cool. Going to a fine art college, of course I thought graphics programming would be cool. with only grade 11 math, graphics programming proved to be next to impossible :)

When I got to quaternions I had to give up lol. I moved on to physical computing for a while using some high level hardware/software (phidgets) and some basic web spidering amongst other things. All art projects.

I've been programming for 9 years professionally and own a marketing company geared towards small businesses that builds web, desktop and mobile applications.

Now I just program for fun really (yay staff!) but I think I can hold my own. :)

Did you have a specific question, or just trying to meet similar folks?

just looking for similar folks :). I've been getting back into coding, forcing myself to code every day learning ADO.net. Here's a blog I set up where I've been posting my source code so I can find it easily at a future date. Plus the blog kinda helps with ensuring I stick to the schedule and it just might help somone else down the road in a google search or the likes :)

I do programming in PHP and Delphi, along with being a mySQL guru. I do web programming, along with gui applications in Delphi for supporting a point-of-sale system I've been working with the last 5 years (Silk Systems, now called Activant Systems)
