A bit more stuff about myself.

Born in July 1985 in Slavyansk, Ukraine.

To keep it short, I like when things are done the right way. Markup is done according to standards. Variables are declared. Code is optimized. Comments are written. No one-leg solutions. Its either done properly or not done at all.

Most of projects I've been working on had complete development cycle: making original idea, transforming that idea to specs, writing use cases, defining milestones and assigning tasks to them, creating actual code, proper testing (both unit testing and working with beta-testers, if any), writing product documentation (both technical and printed user guides) and keeping up with customer support after product release. So in a few words, I know what is that about.
