NicksWebsite.Net

I started NicksWebsite.Net after starting
a job hunt in mid-2011. Its purpose was to practice using Ruby on Rails and also to
showcase some of my projects that demonstrate my competence in the field of software
development.
In early 2012 I reimplemented the site in PHP as I was being contacted more consistently by head hunters looking to fill positions that required PHP skills. download: PHP Source | Rails source home page: Try It in PHP! | Try It on Rails! |
