Contact me:

I am the lead developer at Superbreak in York, working in ASP.NET MVC from the early CTPs through to MVC3 at present.

For over a year, my .NET skills were blunted by the necessity of working almost exclusively in ColdFusion. Still, it gave me chance to get to know MVC a lot more through Mach-II. When ASP.NET MVC came out, I felt I had a good advantage, and had would have a stronger knowledge than if I had continued using 'classic' ASP.NET webforms.

I enjoy the fact that stackoverflow is more community based than Experts Exchange, which really makes users feel isolated.

Also, I've answered more questions in the two months here, than I did in five years at Experts Exchange.

Initially spurred on by the challenge of "doing better than Jonathon Bolster", I found that helping out is extremely enjoyable and helping people of all technical skill levels is great fun.

comment Deleting an application key?
Interesting question, but does it really need all that crap at the end of the title? This isn't 4chan.

comment API key limit increase support
Of course, if the user doesn't have JS, then it's going to be a bit hard.

I suppose you could always make your site utilise AJAJ so that, if the user has it on their phone, the requests will come from their IP, thus removing the quota problem.
