About Me
My name is Jim Drewes. I'm a web developer, working at BJC HealthCare
in St. Louis, Missouri. In addition to the C#/ASP.NET, and ColdFusion work
that I do at BJC, I also dabble in PHP, Java, and Ruby. I currently have websites
that I've written in PHP and Ruby on Rails. To top it all off, I'm a
Linux fanatic as well.
About This Website
This website is written entirely in Ruby on Rails and HTML. The first
version of jimdrewes.com, which existed for about 4 or 5 years, was written
in PHP. It was converted to Ruby as an experiment and to start implementing
AJAX. The original PHP version consisted of thousands of lines of PHP code,
plus full HTML templates on top of that. This Ruby implementation contains
only a few hundred lines.
