BackgroundMy first computer was a Commodore-64. I played lots of games and learnt to program in BASIC and 6502 M/C. Later, I got involved in the web while at Leeds University, back in the days of the CERN server and the X Mosaic browser. After a short break in UMass I got a nice new NT box, EMWAC HTTPs and a static IP at UCR. I quickly discovered CGI and then Perl. I use to work for the Inso Corporation (EBT), an XML content management company. I ran their tech support desk for Europe, and though the product did not support Perl, I used Perl at every possibility to get things done. I now work for a multinational medical supply company. This involves mostly SAP R/3 ABAP programming and a little Linux/AIX, Perl and Apache. Perl StuffI like Perl! Well you would hope so, seeing as I took time to join Perlmonks and write this bio here. I also like XML, you will note a lot of my nodes deal with Perl and XML, it's a bit of a hobby of mine. I mostly work with Apache 1.3/2.x, and CGI/Perl/mod_perl, on *nix (AIX/RedHat - work and Debian - home). I've done quite a bit of Perl/XML work, and found the XML::LibXML and XML::LibXSLT modules in particular very powerful. This node Mega XSLT Batch job - best approach? is a good example of the kind of work I'm interested it. Monks I've metI must confess that the only monks I've actually met face to face are Davorg and DrHyde. I've exchanged a few emails with others, but living in the country-side is not good for joining a town based Mongers group. Though to my utter surprise there are other Perl user in my village. Blog and other work...Everyone seems to have a blog, so not to be out done I have a journal over on use perl; and a blog on my server. My modules can be found over on CPAN: XML::RSS::Tools, Log::Trivial, Config::Trivial and Config::Trivial::Storable. |
