Alaska

Making moves

I didn’t want to post anything about this until I had given notice at work, so here it is. I was contacted by a head-hunter about a position in Fairbanks. I hadn’t planned on changing positions at this time, but the opportunity was too good to pass up. The position is as a PHP developer with a company in Fairbanks, Alaska. They would like me to start on the 17th of this month, and I am trying to get everything together to make that happen.

The house is currently in underwriting and should close soon, and we are getting everything packed and ready to roll. I will definitely miss working with the crew I am leaving behind, but I am looking forward to learning lots of new (to me) things, including interfacing with touch screens and some serious AJAX.

The downside of all this is that both this site and talkingfox.com will be down for anywhere from one day to a week (or if we have difficulty getting an apartment lined up possibly longer – although I don’t want to think about that right now.)
