Unfortunetly Scapenation is no longer a live service as development and funding was cut in late 2009, but I am proud to be part of the team that was selected to bring the idea to life. During my time at A51 Integrated I was challenged to help create one of the most complex Adobe Flash applications I have been part of.

Branded as a neverending massive multiplayer online game, Scapenation was released as open public beta in mid 2009. The initial relase featured 4 of the first 6 islands of Spacenation accessable to users. Each island included mini-games, avatar customizations as well as many other hidden fun activities.

Tools Used: Adobe Flash 9 / AS3, Smartfox Server, Terracotta, mySQL 5, PHP, CakePHP, JavaScript, XHTML, CSS

During the architecture phase of Scapenation, we knew the largest issues with multiuser Flash application was the ability to scale the backend systems. Traditionally a Flash application just didn't need more then a single servers worth of power to run itself, but in Scapenation's case, we needed a system that could easliy support 10,000 concurrent users in a single instance.

My job in this architecture phase was to figure out how we could cluster the servers together over multipule servers to have a infinatly scalable server system that could be grown with ease.

Since we were one of the first development teams to ever use this Smartfox Clustered system in a production enviroment, we decided to write a white paper on the setup process to air other to do the same.

This white paper outlines how to setup a cluster over multipule servers creating a fully redundant Terracotta and Smartfox Server setup. A minimum of 4 server are required to complete this setup.

The Smart Woman Survival Guide website needed a custom Flash video player with embeded advertising that could be easily integrated by a content manager. The video player will allow for viewing up until a advertisement. Once the ad is viewed in full by the user, its automatically removed from the timeline and the user will not have to view it again.

The site also includes the ability to save specific video clips to a playlist for easy viewing and sorting. A online quiz also lets users find out which character of the show the are most like.

During my finaly years of highschool, I started my professional IT carrer off at MP Russo, a promotional product creation company. My job started off as a web development gig and quickly transitioned into full systems administration role. I spent just over a year there (until my transition to college) helping to fix issues that had been slowing productivity down in the office and warehouse. These issues ranged from database inventory managment for multipule warehouses, to speeding up internal network communications and employee communications.

tododaloo.com is a website I mainly created for myself to use. I normally use a notepad to write a simple todo list every morning at work and at home. tododaloo.com allows you to manage a very simple task list in your web browser. All of the data stored in the list is saved within the cookies of the browser on your machine so the server never needs to save any data. It's not a website many people will use because I am sure they have found something similair they need - but this is perfect for me.
