I used several jQuery plugins in this site: HTML Tooltips on this page, Portfolio Layout on the Portfolio page, Roundabout for jQuery on the Testimonials page. Also, the rounded corners of my picture are courtesy of the Curvy Corners plugin. There are hundreds of jQuery plugins out there that can enhance your site in ways that are both "flashy" (without using Flash) while remaining search engine friendly! Your Flash content files are all but invisible to search engines.

PHP powered, this site also uses several security features, like SecurImage Captcha on the contact page to prevent search engine robots (and hackers) from sending blank / spurious forms - plus there's some additional security on the server side available from my tech blog.

I am here to help. No project too big or small.

To review in detail the technology I know and routinely use, please check out my resumé.

jQuery is a Javascript extension that enables you to program many "special effects" without the user needing to download any special software. It is extremely robust and most plugins are very easy to use. Click on the link for more information.
Inline HTML Tooltip lets you define rich HTML tooltips that are embedded directly inside your webpage and that appear when the mouse rolls over links on your page. The tooltip appears directly beneath the anchor link, and adjusts its position dynamically based on whether the mouse is too close to the window's edges. Click on the link for more information.
