Helping Develop Developers

I was sick of rss feeds.

I’m sure a lot of people feel the same way about it. You read an article, subscribe to the blog and continue to receive updates each time a new article is written. Every time you open your feed reader, you see that number of unread items. It could be a small number or rather large. Whatever the number, you skim through titles and/or short descriptions hoping something will catch your interest and you will continue to read the complete article.

Ask yourself this: how many of those articles are relevant to you? I’d bet only 1/4 of those articles (if that) are worth reading and the rest is just stuff that doesn’t really matter. At least, that’s how my experience has been. Now, instead of reading feeds I’ll go to a select few sites where I know I’ll find the information I want to read.

With that in mind, DevelopingDeveloper.com was born. I wanted to help other developers, in the same predicament as me, to find useful, relative and current information in one place without having to waste time searching for it. Instead, I’ll be filtering what I read and posting the stuff I found valuable and informative or what I think would be helpful to others.

I hope you find this a valuable resource! If you’d like to submit a link or have a suggestion, feel free to send me an email.

Site Launched!

Hey everyone! My name is JR Tashjian and I am a Web Developer living and working in New York.

I started this blog because I wanted to write about what I do and what I learn as well as educate any readers wanting to learn more about Web Development. I will be focusing on the Back-End (server side) coding of projects using PHP and MySQL. I will also write a little about Front-End (client side) coding using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. As for post consistency, I haven’t set anything nor do I plan to. I will write articles as I have time but, I will aim for one or two posts a week.

Well, I am very excited about this launch! I hope everyone who reads my articles will find this site a valuable resource for learning Web Development. If you have any topics you would like me to write about or have a question you want answered, feel free to email and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

Check back often for updates! While your waiting, get the feed!
