May 3, 2008 — Jeff Lynch

Yes, this is another “techie” blog, although not quite what you probably expect.

My name is Jeff Lynch and I live a double life (sounds intriguing so far). During the day, I’m a mild-mannered .NET developer using all things Microsoft. (If your a “microsofty” you can follow what I’m up to on my .NET blog at http://codebetter.com/blogs/jeff.lynch) In the evenings and on the weekends I do freelance development using “other technologies” such as Javascript, Ajax, PHP and mySQL on OS X. I also do some freelance photography in my local area and occasionally work on iPhone applications.

I think the symbolism of the Yin & Yang covers exactly how I feel most days. I work during the day in Microsoft’s Visual Studio development environment and then in the evenings and weekends in Apple’s Xcode, Dashcode or Panic’s Coda. I find that much of my best work comes from the “blending” of the two distinct development environments where I may do some HTML / CSS layout work in Coda in the evening and then import that work into Visual Studio as the template for an “.aspx” master-page. I may do some heavy-duty javascript debugging in Visual Studio that will end up in Dashcode for an iPhone web application I’m working on.

Yin  & Yang

That’s why I’ve had Michael Flarup of PixelResort create this cool new logo for my blog and freelance business.

What Software Do I Use?

I get this question from both sides of the Apple | Microsoft fence.
