Contractor, TelecommutingNote: This has been worked on considerably & I cannot speak for its current state -- it is not how I last left it.Tools: PHP, MySQL, HTML, jQuery, CSS, Netbeans 7.2.1, Visual Paradigm, MySQL WorkbenchSummary: Social networking site built on the SocialEngine 4 platform that allows for creation, encoding, & decoding of messages in a graphical phonetic language – a.k.a. “Pogos”. Messages can be encoded in ≈30 graphical character sets, “Rosettas,” which can be switched at any time & mixed within a single message. These Pogo messages can then be shared via Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. as graphics.Created a draggable, floating GUI used as a key for decoding messages anywhere on the site. “Rosettas” can be changed on the key to any of the available styles to match the message being decoded. Built as a reusable component / widget that is registered & available in the SocialEngine control panel's layout manager.All GUI components use an MVC & OO Javascript approach to create them as stand alone modules. HTML & CSS separated as a component “skin”, business logic is in Javascript / jQuery objects. The manipulated data is modeled using JSON structures. Created a GUI that allows users to create “Pogo” messages & control all variable aspects of its appearance – a.k.a “Pogo Builder.” On save all data is POSTed via AJAX to the server where a script reconstructs the data as a PHP object / model which is used by a “factory” class to recreate the Pogo using the gd2 package.Built a multi-tabbed, collapsible, slide show used for demonstrating Pogo messages & the various control elements on the builder.Integrated on multiple levels with: Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, StumbleUpon, Digg, Google+, LinkedIn, Delicious, & Instagram APIs for “Likes” & sharing.Created all GUI widgets as native SocialEngine widgets & available in the drag-n-drop layout manager of the SE control panel.Developed custom SocialEngine widgets
