Grand Opening

Hello to you, and welcome on my website. I have been owning this domain for nearly two years now and never used it. Actually, I started this blog as a New Year resolution, and after reading on of Jeff Atwood’s article (excellent, as usual). So here I am.

I intend to post regularly about technical subjects that I find interesting. I am still working on the site design, but I think it is sufficient now to start publishing. I will be improving the design as I go along.

Presentation and Background

My name is Philippe Vlérick and I am a software developer. I have been graduated twice in computer science:

I am currently working as a consultant for a large service provider company: Unisys.

I live in Belgium near Brussels. In my spare time, I spend time learning webdesign technologies (CSS, Javascript…), reading books and playing Wii.

Thanks

First, I would like like to thank Textpattern that is the heart of this blog. I would also like to thank Deron Sizemore for his set of icons that I’m using, as I’ve never been good at making up graphics.

    Thanks for the mention, and moreso, thanks for using the icons! :) Glad you’ve found use for them.

    I used to be a user of TXP. For about a year actually. Once I discovered ExpressionEngine though, I made the jump.

    I have read a lot of good things about ExpressionEngine, however as I am occasionally freelancing and will use this site as a showcase, I would have to pay for it.

    So for now, I’ll stick to what I know ;)

    You might shoot EE sales an email about that. I know you would need a commercial license for a business website, but for a simple showcase of work, I’m not so sure. It won’t actually be your business site per say, just a showcase, so you may be able to get away with the free version.

    Good luck
    Deron
