In the last four months, I’ve had the opportunity to work with Packt publishers as a technical reviewer for one of their books: Building Web and Mobile ArcGIS Server Applications with JavaScript by Eric Pimpler. As a GIS developer who works with this stuff all every day, I enjoyed the book and was glad to […]
Last week, I had the opportunity to attend ESRI’s Developers Summit in Palm Springs, CA. It’s a great chance for developers to hang out with ESRI employees, pick their brains, and come away with a little more inspiration regarding their work. It was the first time I’ve had the chance to go to something like

So, I’ve been going through the P2PU site, trying out lessons and challenges. So far, they’ve been fun. I’ve been working on this one challenge at P2PU, walking around and taking pictures of things that remind me of HTML elements.
