Joel From Canada – For Sale on eBay!!!
Today I went on sale on eBay!
Actually, it’s not what you think. What we’re (brain child of Julia Lerman) trying to do is raise some extra money for charity. You can go and bid for an hour of my time and all benefits going to the Tsunami victims of Banda Aceh. I’m not the only RD up for bidding – in fact, there are 30 fellow .Net experts (RD’s, MVP’s, Authors, INETA Presenters, and all around smart people) that you can bid on. All of our bio’s are up on the e-bay site:

Bid Soon - Bid Often - Bid High!!! Help us make a difference!!!
To supplement my bio, I thought I would let people know what I specialize in these days (because that changes every so often). Here’s a brief summary of my passions:
- Agile and Team Development
- Microsoft Visual Studio Team System (my absolute passion in life right now outside my family) with special focus on Foundation services
- Fine-tuning Requirements Management Processes
- Maturing Your Software Engineering Practices
- Collaborative Software Development Practices and Tools
- SOA based Aggregate Solutions
- Software Factory Models
- Software Services Scalability and Maintainability
Oh, and if you want, I can play a wicked blues guitar as well!! Hmm.. maybe I could write a song about the promised land of software factories. I can hear in now.. "... I had a dream about my old friend Factory - Software Factory... let me tell ya about it... goes somethin' like this..."
