After six-months as a full-time developer for imbee.com Cronen-Townsend Consulting returned with Imbee as its biggest client. Steve is currently applying his experience with this complex site to fix a wide variety of bugs with an emphasis on the registration process which results in verified adult accounts with linked child accounts.

Assisted with a data migration of 17 thousand users and their data to a new Drupal-based web site as Drupal users and instances of several CCK types using the Migration module, Migration Extras, Table Wizard, and Drush. Wrote custom modules for importing user email addresses by choosing from a variety of fields, and importing exported migration content set definitions. Trained on techniques for getting feedback from PHP when errors occur and achieved a large speed increase to make iterations to perfect the migration process feasible.

Analysis of the workflow used to design each issue of the print edition of The Boston Review in order to design a new web site for the organization with strong content management and search capabilities and an issue importer system that extracts the information needed for the updating the new site from the Adobe InDesign files that lay out the print edition of the magazine. (The old web site is still at bostonreview.net while the new web site is being developed.)

The new site will be based on the OpenPublish Drupal distribution. See recent blog posts for new developments in this project or follow me on Twitter.

• Summer 2011 - Internal Drupal site at the Ecotarium allowing museum staff to review the videos made by visitors to a new kiosk.
• Developing a new Drupal site to allow museum staff members to flexibly change and reorder multiple choice questions for a museum kiosk, and to track accumulating visitor answers in the form of pie charts and histograms.
• Development work on a Drupal multisite installation to help museum staff members sort through audio of museum user visits to museum kiosks that allow users to leave videos.
• Consulting about automatic Facebook uploading.

Steve has helped us on several projects in a variety of capacities, from consulting on some tricky issues related to Facebook uploading, to Drupal installation and configuration on our server, to a customized system integrating museum content in a Drupal environment. Steve's personable and responsive approach has added great value to our own work, and I would recommend him without hesitation for projects involving a variety of technologies.

Steve's attention to detail, ability to take initiative, and make financially sound recommendations played a definitive part in our design, enhancements and continued development. We most appreciate his conscientious undertaking of some complex problems and solving them while providing much needed documentation.
