I live in the greater Toronto area (Canada), and have been programming professionally since 1994. I’m currently developing in C#, building ASP.NET web applications against SQL Server (usually) databases.

Some items of interest about me are :

I just started a blog ... we'll see how it goes.
I talk endlessly on Twitter (@JohnMacIntyre)
I completed my profile only to get the badge. I'm a badge grabber.
... oh yeah .. I also unabashedly use smileys. :-D
