New Job
It seems I was due for my annual job change despite my best efforts to stay at one place for a little while. The last job was just too much for me, so I decided to start looking for something a little bit more relaxed.
I'm now working at Plemi a start-up that is going to offer services for concert gigs organization, mainly for emerging artists.
It does fit better in my current lifestyle as recently I've started going to a lot of concerts and otherwise going out and meeting a lot of interesting people. I'm also working part-time and (soon) telecommuting so I'll have a lot more free time on my hands. Paris is a great city for concert going, I really regret not enjoying more of that aspect in the previous years I've been living there.
For the technical part, I am the lead developer of the symfony applications we are going to use for the launch of the services. As you may have noticed, I'm a big fan of symfony, being at the core of my previous works, so I'm glad I'll be able to use it again and also able to contribute more to the project itself.
Work related news
At the end of 2006, I started working freelance for Cloziz, a web2.0 social networking site. I developed it from scratch using Symfony a Php framework. I can heartily recommend it, from the beginning of development to the first online version there was less that two weeks.
I then took a job at a financial company ( that shall remain unnamed ), it didn't work out and I left after five months.
I'm now working at Splitgames where, as a project manager, I expect to add a lot of exciting features to this video games exchange community site.
This is also a symfony-based website, the only issue we have at the present are the difficulties to find available developers.
