David Morton’s Summary

I have been developing in .NET for 3 years now professionally, and as a hobbyist before that, but in that short time, I've been overloaded with experiences.

C#
VB.NET
Javascript
HTML
T-SQL
ASP.NET
AJAX
LINQ
WCF
WPF
F#
just to name a few.

I'm extremely active on the Microsoft C# and .NET Forums, and am passionate about inspiring others to grow into Software Development as a craft. I view coding as an art. It should be no less than beautiful when finished.

I've worked on everything from small applications that take two hours to write, all the way up to large 8-tier enterprise applications. I specialize in Microsoft Technologies.

I read Intermediate Language for fun, and I'm recently turning into an F# geek. If you know what that last sentance means, and even if you don't, add me to your network.
