Development Skills

I was proficient in XHTML, Javascript (especially DOM manipulation and XMLHtttpRequest), and CSS, as well as Perl, back when I was still actively doing web development (2003-2005). A little something I was working on back then was a webforum powered by AJAX. I never completed it, and it still lingers around in its incomplete state -- http://nerdforum.tripod.com

Now, my interests have moved towards desktop applications. I am currently familiar with Python, Bash, C and C++, as well as Java, though my language of choice is C++. I am in the midst of development of a download manager, written with Gtkmm, Sigx, Curl (thinking of changing to CurlPP), and the boost libraries. It does not have a name yet as the only name I had come up with (HyperGet) was already taken.
