thedonproject.com
<jQuery>, <CSS>, <HTML>, <Perl>, <MySQL>, <wordpress>I made this website. It has a lot of lists and I make different versions every couple years as a hobby.

SWGOH Tracker
<jQuery>, <CSS>, <HTML>, <Perl>, <JSON>I have been playing a mobile game, Star Wars: Galaxy Of Heroes for a bit. I really liked a tracking website, so I made my own tracker inspired by that website over a month or so. Version 2 added a bunch of features including graphics and a whole settings system.
propicks.demonrally.com
<jQuery>, <CSS>, <HTML>, <Perl>, <MySQL>I modernized and ran a fantasy rally game for U.S. rally series from 2010 to 2023.

rallyclock
<jQuery>, <CSS>, <HTML>I had an idea for a clock that just used car numbers from U.S. rally cars. I figured out how to tell which car number to use, at least. Putting together the images to make the clock, though...
Website (2017, version 1)
Seating Chart Creator
<jQuery>, <CSS>, <HTML>I'm working on a simple seating chart maker. Well, I have big plans for it (seating by demographic, preferential seating, etc.), but lost motivation a bit, so it might never get done. Right now, it's just a basic randomizer of whatever names you type in.

2-3-4-5 Solver
<jQuery>, <HTML>I posed an extra credit problem in class but didn't have the right answer. So I brute forced it!
Website (2016?, version 1)
Transformations Game
<jQuery>, <CSS>, <HTML>, <Git>I re-programmed an old game I made in Visual Basic at some summer teacher conference about computer animation. It's a game to help students practice their knowledge of coordinate transformations.

Racing Game
<jQuery>, <CSS>, <HTML>, <Git>I took a class in spring of 2015 on HTML/CSS/jQuery. I do that when I think about career change. It was part one of a four-part path to becoming a programmer. But do I really want to do that? CAN I really do that now that I'm old? This game is a good indicator that maybe I shouldn't. I got a good grade on this, though.

Crayon Sorter
<jQuery>, <CSS>, <HTML>, <Git>More of my work from the class I took. This is an exploration of sorting principles. I wanted to know how to sort by color, so I spent a lot of time figuring that out. The animation is pretty bad so I didn't get a spectacular grade on this one.

jQuery RPG
<jQuery>, <CSS>, <HTML>, <Git>This website was featured on the site that hosts the school as a thing that people can make when they take this class. So I guess that's good. I tried to be funny, as well. Maybe I could be a programmer after all if I just worked hard at it? So, no, then.

Facebook record listing app
<CSS>, <HTML>, <Perl>, <MySQL>, <PHP>I started to make a facebook plugin right before plugins became very obsolete. Oh well.

Visual Basic Animation
<Visual Basic>I made a couple animations in a summer program I took early in my teaching career. They were programmed in VISUAL BASIC. Ugh.

<CSS>, <HTML>, <Perl>, <MySQL>I maintained an RSVP and player stats page for my co-rec soccer team for a while.

exempli gratia myspace hack
<CSS>, <HTML>Check out these two myspace hacks to completely stylize our band myspace profile in ways that myspace probably didn't like us to do? They display pretty well as websites on their own, but the myspace links/images are mostly broken.
Recordnerd.com CSV->record list app
<HTML>, <Perl>Looks like I started a script that takes a CSV of your record collection and turns it into a bunch of links that will add those records to your recordnerd.com record list if you're logged in. My notes say it didn't work yet.
Website (2006, version 1)
Hollow Earth Radio Myspace hack?
<HTML>, <CSS>I found this file that appears to be some advice for the wonderful folks at Hollow Earth Radio to help them stylize their Myspace profile. It's some pretty old advice so don't judge too hard.

bartertown.exempli.com
<HTML>I don't think I actually made this but I set up hosting for it, at least? Definitely didn't make the art and the html isn't my style. At any rate, here's the website for the home studio that we were going to run in our basement for a while.
Website (2004)
geocities.com/metahuman666
<HTML>Apparently, I made a geocities page just to hold a few mp3's because we ran out of space on our website hosting server. A few mp3's!

web-earners.com
<Javascript>, <CSS>, <HTML>, <Perl>, <MySQL>I made a semi-honest living selling advertising and sharing the profits in the early 2000's until the market dried up.

HTML in 1996
<HTML>I taught a one hour course on HTML in 1996 at college. I don't know how I got that gig, but I'm pretty sure I did a bad job.

Video Game Testing
<game testing>I worked for a while as a video game tester. It didn't pay well, but it was sort of fun, I guess. Here's the games I worked on that I remember (mostly uncredited).
Electronic Arts (Redwood City, CA)
- NASCAR 2000 (PlayStation 1)
Nintendo (Redmond, WA)
- Mickey's Speedway USA (European version, GameBoy Color)
- F-Zero: Maximum Velocity (Gameboy Advanced)
- Wave Race: Blue Storm (GameCube)
- Pokemon Stadium (N64, but I only worked on it for a day)
- Mario Party 3? (N64, but again, only for a day or two)
