BIO:
Mike Hall aka just3ws is a software developer with nearly 10 years of experience developing on the Microsoft platform. Despite getting a TRS-80 Color Computer III for First Communion his love for computers just got deeper and weirder. When the bubble hit in the late 90's he jumped on the web and wrote horrible looking websites. (Hey, really? You read this far? Cool. Okay, here's the deal. I'm Mike, nice to meet you. I assume you like being a software developer too. I don't really care which platform either. How about we grab a beer or overpriced coffee and shoot the breeze. Alright? Later.) In ole '99 Mike took his show on the road and convinced someone to hire him as a sysadmin full-time, but soon realized that he was spending more time writing scripts than fixing network issues. Serendipity introduced him to a master programmer and he got his first junior programming gig a short while later. Mike jumped on ASP.NET back when it was XSP and has working up and down the .NET stack ever since. Now Mike is venturing out into the world of user-groups and conferences. Say "Hi", Mike likes meeting you, learning new stuff, clean code, warm socks, mocking OS fanatics, long walks on the beach, beer and the software industry. Mike hopes that he can say something that you find useful for your chosen profession most of all. He can be found on nearly all the usual social-networking sites with the handle, just3ws. And, yes, just3ws means "www".
