Work

Various projects I've worked on or created.

Completed - Projects I've completed to a reasonable degree

  • JQuery Blank (aka jquery.blank) - A simple way to create those default grayed-out text on input boxes and textareas to hint to the user what should be filled out in the field.

Incompleted/Discontinued - Projects I've temporarily stopped working on or abandoned due to various reasons.

  • CustomRSS (download) - This was suppose to be a user-friendly way to select and generate their own RSS feed. It was discontinued due to the actual complication of various possible HTML pages. I though that targeting professor pages would be simplier, but even still, getting the selection process of various (usually poorly formatted) HTML from the browser to a backend cron system proved to be significantly harder than I predicted. The usefulness (for me) versuses the time to spend getting it to work generically waned. I spent countless days trying to tweak the selector and backend scraper to function correctly. This is a Rails application.
