My reaction to being named as a Canadian programmer worth following on Twitter
Yesterday John Bristowe published a list of Developers in Canada You Should Follow on Twitter.
I was humbled and honoured to make the list. … actually, I was a little more excited than that, here’s a dramatization ….
… Thanks John … I’ve been dying to use this video in a blog post.

About
My name is John MacIntyre.
I’ve been developing Line of Business applications on the Microsoft Platform for over 15 years, almost all of it full SDLC. I think I’m pretty good at incremental innovations, coming up with pragmatic solutions to difficult problems, and designing flexible, reusable components without any nasty leaky abstractions or intrusive code.
