My first task was to build web services around legacy data sources. I was free to pick the technologies. I used several languages and frameworks to prototype out my design. I looked at frameworks in perl, ruby, python, and java.

Designed and evolved the architecture as Firststring grew and shaped itself. I also had management responsibilities of the developers.
