Tim Nolte has been involved in web development since 1996. His first website was for Davisco Foods International as a high school student at the Minnesota New Country School in Le Sueur, MN. He has many other interests including music, science fiction, and the outdoors. Tim now lives in the Grand Rapid, Michigan area with his wife and daughter.
Tim began his early web development using a simple text editor. He later moved on to using Dreamweaver and expanding his web development using PHP. Over the years he has had the opportunity to be the developer of many non-profit and business websites. He went on to do web application development in the wireless telecommunications industry at iPCS Wireless, Inc. Today Tim has taken a similar role at Ericsson Services, Inc. where he has expanded his skills and serves customers around the globe.
Recently, Tim has had the opportunity to work with a marketing firm to redesign their website using ExpressionEngine and jQuery, as well as give a hand with the rebuilding of Haiti through the development of the Starfish Haiti website.
In addition to Tim's professional career, he has been able to use his time and talents at Daybreak (www.daybreak.tv). He has volunteered for the role of Online Manager at Daybreak for the past three years, where he continues to help Daybreak with their online presence.
Paul Zabin wrote his first BASIC program back in 1977 and has been hooked ever since. Paul's favorite development platform is a combination jQuery, PHP, and MySQL, which he uses to build Google Gadgets, show off his wife's fine art photography, and to learn the true meaning of a JavaScript closure. Paul contributes back to the development community by publishing Google Spreadsheet templates that track stock portfolios, and occasionally posts articles on LinkedIn on how to get XML stock market data from "the cloud".
Paul lives in Berkeley, California, with his very patient wife Jenna, where they tend to a rare cactus garden. When not programming or watering the plants, he can be found at the local farmers market or newly discovered coffee shop.
