This is the portfolio, blogging and experimentation site of Michael Archbold.

At the moment I'm focused on my new company, distriqt, so this site is not being updated as often. For the latest information head over to distriqt //

The old site is still active, but unmaintained, here.

My professional career to date has provided me with broad experience, ranging from computational physics through to managing and implementing application development. These days I specialise in flash as3/as2, web technologies (including js, php, asp, & jsp) and c/c++ application development. I even dabble in system administration for a few companies. Having grown up in this industry I have been exposed to just about every aspect of the field, from mobile phone and embedded device development to the more exposed web technologies.

I believe in standards, code reusability and open source and I take pride in producing simple and elegant solutions to coding problems.
