Cal Jacobson’s Blog

I’m a thirtysomething software developer and father of two from Colorado Springs, Colorado. My primary development language for the last few years has been C#, but I’ve drifted into the PHP and Python world recently.  Prior to drinking Microsoft’s Kool-Aid, I was a ColdFusion developer for many years with a smattering of Java here and there. A long time ago I was an intel analyst for the United States Army.

This isn’t my first foray into blogging. I find it hard to write on a regular basis about anything remotely interesting to anybody else without sounding like a complete fool; I’d like to think that an occasional post will be enough to pull off that particular trick. Like most modern human endeavors, 90% of blogs are utter crap…long diatribes about government coverups, petty fights that took place after homeroom, and moody navel-gazing. I’d like to think that what I write here could actually be helpful to somebody — anybody – but I guess time will tell, won’t it?
