April already!
Time to start looking for my next contract. Will be finishing the FDS system for Nolinor by the end of this month, then strait to the next contract. This time looking for some business analysis work, hopefully for a fun company not to far from home. If anyone is actually reading this blog and need a seasoned business analyst give me a shout by email or phone!

Winter is back!
After a lukewarm winter and a spring that seemed within reach, winter is back in force... not very cold (didn't even crack -20C this year... pfff) but lotsa fresh snow these last few days. Oh well, you can never count on winter being over until the end of march anyways...
Been busy since the last post, started another contract in october with Nolinor, this time to build them a Flight Data System. Very cool stuff, and will help their operations immensely. The SMS is doing well but a revision might be in order this year, hope so, they are a fun client and it's nice to see those 737s up close :-)
Several projects are in the works here at the Funke Ideas headquarters, some might even make it to a browser near you later this year! Speaking of headquarters, i've finally finished the basement office and work there 4 days a week (and weekends sometimes). Got all i need down here, even a treadmill to keep me in shape and give me a welcome break from staring at this screen all day... i'm hoping to do some 10K or more races this year, if i can keep up the training, not always easy!

Been a while...
Alright, haven't blogged in a long while... so here is where i'm at: got a second wonderful daughter last year, working now on two contracts (MD Physician Services and Nolinor Aviation) and continuing renovations on our house... busy busy!
The full time contract at MD Physician Services is all about business analysis for their websites and physician centric intranets (they are a Canadian Medical Association company). They offer financial services, drug and general medical databases, eLearning tools, etc. I deal mainly with the business people in the Ottawa office, the dev team here in Montreal and some of the third party suppliers. It's an interesting view into the medical industry and i get to work with some fun people.
The second contract, part time, is for Nolinor Aviation where i've built them an intranet that implements a Security Management System (SMS). This basically permits employees of the airline to fill in reports about incidents occurring on the job. Managers can then analyze the reports and set up appropriate mesures to correct the problems reported. Some statistics, user management and data entry is also available to directors and admins. Pretty cool project for some nice folks.

Day 2
This is my second post... hum, nothing really to say... just tweaking the layout of the blog :-)

This is it, the moment you've been waiting for...
I've finally bit the bullet and created a blog... so bear with me as i learn the ins and outs of blogging about (gasp!) myself and whatever else comes out of my over imaginative brain!
Let start with a little bit about myself: Web entrepreneur, family man and adventure seeking dude extraordinaire. I've been coding since i was 12 (geek alert!) building websites and intranets professionally for the last 14 years and in the last year been a proud daddy to little Marianne.
