About Jonathan Maron
I have been working in the web application conceptualization and development space since 1996. My current position is with an international company, specialized in the production of industrial machine vision products, application software and software components for developers.
I lead an in-house development team of programmers, graphical artists, authors and search engine optimizers. Together, we build highly usable, multi-lingual, fully localized web applications that rank well in all search engines for all applicable languages and countries.
Being an advocate of the FOSS movement, I promote the use of Open Source software, motivating and assisting team members to deploy Linux on the desktop and server. I reject the notion of reinventing the wheel and consequently prefer to develop with established frameworks, components and tool kits where applicable.
I am an active member of Zend_Service_LiveDocx. Zend_Service_LiveDocx is a really exciting project, which finally offers PHP developers an easy and very quick way to create beautiful word processing documents, such as PDF, DOCX, DOC or RTF files.
I use Ubuntu on my desktop and prefer Debian GNU/Linux on production servers. Please bear this in mind, when reading the content of this blog.
In my somewhat sparse spare time, I like to cycle, windsurf and enjoy the Great Outdoors.
The views expressed on these pages are mine alone and not those of my employer.
