This is quite a playground for an active imagination, as the technologies available are constantly changing and improving.
Focusing on the arenas of realtime communication, gaming, and social marketing, I work with top-tier brands to build inventive digital experiences using agile methodologies and current best practices.
Event Venues Marketplace Changing the way that people find and book event venues! Eventup is a marketplace for event venues - I have been working on this startup as co-founder and CTO since November 2011. Search, save and book unique venues all over the country. We allow users to book a site walkthrough before their event, and also can make connections with event planner services.
A jQuery plugin for simplifying time inputs. Timesplitter was originally developed as a UI improvement to the text inputs generated by Django's TimeInput widgets, but it is useful anywhere you need an unobtrusive, degradable way to improve a time input. It is fully styleable using CSS and requires only the use of jQuery.

Lead Developer / UI Designer NetConference.tv is a webconferencing and social collaboration suite. Users can host online meetings using video and text chat, document and desktop sharing, file sharing, interest groups, and more.
