About Jon

I am a web/multimedia developer. I'm originally from New York City, now living across the Hudson in Jersey City. My work has helped power digital signage at the New York Stock Exchange and MLB Store, prime time television ads for Lucille Roberts, and both websites and content management systems for businesses and artists. I am proficient in front-end development (HTML + CSS + modern JavaScript) as well as multimedia creation and editing, and I acquire and apply new skills quickly. I have had the pleasure of working with many talented designers, art directors, and back-end developers, but enjoy a challenge and can be self-sufficient as well.

Technology Sucks

I HATE COMPUTERS!

…however, its what I do, so I do what I can to coexist peacefully. But I can’t stand it! Between Yahoo! deleting my account (they still haven’t got back to me and it’s been a while) and my laptop’s power acting up (shows battery when it’s plugged in), I’m getting really frustrated. Oh well, stuff happens I guess.

Lastly, a movie review of sorts. I saw a movie this week called Tetsuo: The Iron Man. Now, I’ve seen many gory, gut-wrenching things in my day without a second thought, and was afraid that maybe I was becoming desensitized to things. This movie put me in my place. If you are the anti-social type and have someone who keeps pestering you, give them this movie and tell them it’s your favorite. If they still talk to you after that (or say it’s their favorite too) you may want to move to another state (or country). I’m sure there is a logical explanation for the film, but until I hear it, I guess this will be “that which I don’t speak of.”

The Sickness

Cough, cough. Sneeze sneeze.

Man I hate being sick. Altenating between feeling like I’m stuck in an icebox and on a bed of hot coals. Aches and pains and all that stuff. Oh well. It could be worse. I could be listening to whatever is on the radio (shuddering at the thought).

Take care and I hope any other sick people are feeling better.

Party Like It’s 1999

MERRY NEW YEAR!

2006 is the year to make stuff happen. So many have dealt with pain and suffering this past year with the tsunami, the hurricanes, earthquakes, violence abroad and at home, as well as everyone’s own personal losses. Though you can never forget the past, its important to survive and move on, to be an example for the next generation. If you’re reading this (God knows how many people actually do), don’t forget to remind your family and friends how much they mean to you, because if you spread the love, all else will follow. So push on, strive for something, and most impotantly…

…live.

Good Tidings Everyone!!!

Now that that’s over with…..

Hope everyone enjoyed their Halloween! I love it because I like to see all the unique costumes (one guy was dressed like Ice Cube from the N.W.A. days), and most importantly, I’m a candy addict, so it’s my yearly guilt-free fix! Plus, it means that Thanksgiving is right around the corner!

Merry Christmas!
