About the Author

Nicholas Terwoord is a software developer, professional geek, and graduate from the University of Waterloo with a Bachelor of Computer Science (Honors). When not developing software, which is not often, he can be found helping his wife, Amanda, with her business, or more likely working his way through a growing list of distractions on Steam. He can be reached at http://nt3r.com.

He is happily employed at Willet Inc., a company in Kitchener, Ontario that develops Second Funnel, a marketing solution for brands, and online retailers. More information can be found at http://secondfunnel.com.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank my lovely wife, Amanda, for being so supportive as I wrote this book as well as my good friends who encouraged me through the long (and sometimes arduous) journey towards completing my first published work.

About the Reviewers

Gert Vaartjes started as a specialist in Geographical Information Systems. While customizing these programs, he was intrigued by what's actually under the hood, and thus started his passion for programming. This programming journey led him through all kinds of programming languages. As a technical consultant, he worked for several governmental and non-governmental companies. He has been developing software for more than 10 years. Now he's working as a senior developer at Highsoft, working on the Highcharts products and focusing on backend integrations of Highcharts.

When not programming, you can find him working on his small-scale farm in Norway, where he grows potatoes, chases sheep, chops wood, and does other basic stuff.

Juanjo Fernandez is a software developer with 10 years of professional experience. He was self taught in Flash when he began using it and tried to combine the best possible design/programming and user experience.

For several years he has been in the backend, struggling with databases and servers, using PHP, MySQL, and Apache, but he's also a certified Java programmer. Now he has returned to the area of development that he is passionate about, the frontend. He's a strong advocate of web standards, and he's very excited about the future and the great possibilities offered by HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript.

Currently he works in Incubio, a startup incubator located in Barcelona, and helps to develop frontend of several startups such as ZeedProtection, Quizlyse, NotedLinks, Signaturit, and Trakty. Also, he is working on his first personal project, Wallastic.
