Web App: RSSza

RSSza was a website I developed in 2007, it was essentially a content/link aggregator which periodically ran pulling in news and information from RSS feeds. It was probably the first web app I had developed which got some traction and I received some good, and constructive comments from folks on various areas of improvement. After some feedback the site was considered “information overload”, I let users create a profile and customize their feeds.

I shut the site down in around 2011.

List: Print Projects

While I am not a designer, I have always loved the concept, process and experimentation aspects of print projects. I grew up with Dot Matrix printers and the allure of bringing digital to reality grasped my attention early in life. These are some of the projects I have created digitally and subsequently printed for personal, marketing or informational needs.

Bennetts IT Solutions – Tech Competition

My competitive nature early on during my studies at Port Elizabeth Technikon, in the pre-“hackathon” days where companies would put up a memo at your local university asking to get a challenge done 🙂 Myself and one other student won some $$$ analyzing and suggesting improvements for a local website.

This competition led to me getting a part-time job with company as a software developer.
