the blog

I am days from commencing our rewrite in earnest. In order to accomplish this feat (hopefully in a month), I am taking a long-awaited sabbatical from the office world (a topic that I should address later). I guess I am a geek at heart, cause I really can't wait to get my hands dirty again and quench my thirst for accomplishment. As of late, the roles I have played were slanted towards management and oversight. So, along with being a geek, I am an Engineer and therefore have a hard time being fulfilled at work unless I have helped design and built "something" that is delivered and used. In summary, I am truly excited to rebuild Xerpi's foundation in order to make future functionality additions easier (i.e. faster satisfaction over the long-run). There will be no limit in the direction we could take the site once we go through this refactoring -- and we'll then have the appropriate separation of concerns to implement some "back end" ideas that will make Xerpi the place to maintain your "favorites".
