So a little about me. My name is Joseph Thompson and I'm software engineer/programmer/coder/what-have-you by trade. I'm twenty-three and I gradated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in May 2010 with a BS in Computer Science. Right now I'm working as a government contractor in southern Virginia working on Java EE and ColdFusion applications. I also like cooking, fly-fishing (or anything outdoors, really), sports, running, reading, etc. Learning new things and skills is kind of a hobby, so I've dabbled in quite a bit or stuff.
Why have I decided to start this thing? I'm trying to improve my writing and communication skills for one. I like to think of myself as relatively decent at it, but in my job conveying ideas precisely with minimal ambiguity is important. Both for sharing ideas with coworkers and ensuring that both you and your customer understand each other.
Also want to try to use this blog to share ideas and things I've learned. I've found a ton of solutions to problems on blogs, so I figure I'll try to return the favor and hopefully help a few people out myself. Not to mention I can come back later to see what I did when I run across a problem again.
And so here we are. Got myself a nice, shiny new experiment for me. Lets see what happens, shall we?
