About

Me

I’m Adam Caudill, a 25 year-old software & website developer, avid Visual Basic and .NET Framework fan, a lover of fine Japanese Katanas, a collector of bayonets and a technology addict. In addition to programming I occupy myself with reading and chatting on the IRC server I host for the RandomIRC network.

While I tend to spend most of my time in VB, I also spend a fair bit of time developing & maintaining websites using PHP and Ruby. I also have a background in C# & C++ development, as well as a few other languages that I avoid these days. I tend to limit the number of languages I work in so that I can better focus on those I use regularly.

Work

I work in the telecom industry, mainly developing reporting & data capture applications. Working in an industry that has a habit of turning on a dime raises some interesting challenges; not the least of which is the short deadlines and ever changing requirements. It’s certainly a challenge, but life would just be too boring without rewriting specifications on a daily basis

We do all new development using the .NET Framework 2.0 in Visual Basic, though we are called upon from time to time to update older applications written in Visual Basic 6 and even VBA.
