Well what better opputunity is there to post your
resume link, an employer sitting right here (or
there), and not being considered as spam -:)
http://www.devhome.net/resume.txt
i've been working on php since hmm... quite some time,
maybe 2 years back or more, a hop from perl, never
looked back though. my resume does explain much of my
knowledge, so i'll let anyone interested go there :-)
well not many php jobs in india sadly -:(
my php projects have been diverse, but the only when
you'll be able to appreciate is http://www.devhome.net
a site i keep working on, and some of you even may
know of.
thanks
