Personal
This is Patrick Chanezon's blog, an online place where I share thoughts, code, and a few haikus.
I'm 37, married to Dorothee Chabas, a brilliant neurologist specialized in Multiple Sclerosis. We have 3 great kids: Eliette (), Simon () and Charlotte ().
Professional
I work with Google, as Adwords API evangelist.
Before that I was software architect in the Portal group at Sun, where I worked remotely from Paris, France between 2001 and 2005, with teams located in the US and India.
In 2004 I helped launch blogs.sun.com and co-created the ROME (Rss and atOM utilitiEs) project, an open source library designed to make writing syndication applications in java simpler.
I ported Sun ONE Portal Server to Sun, IBM and BEA application servers. I am now working on collaboration in Sun Portal.
My resume is at P@ Resume and this is my most current blog.
Blog History
Over the past few years I have played with various blogging software. My old blogs can be found:
- P@ Sunglasses: from april 2004 to april 2005, powered by Roller (java) based
- P@'s blog: from august 2004 to december 2004, powered by blojsom (java), mainly used to play with moblogging, posting pictures from my cell phone.
- Patrick Chanezon's weblog: from July 2003-April 2004, powered by Movable Type (Perl)
- Patrick Chanezon's Radio Weblog: from march 2002 to may 2003, powered by Userland Radio (Commercial, C, ActionScript)
These days I do most of my personal hacking in Ruby, and Ruby On Rails, which is why this blog is powered by the excellent Typo.
