Gary Moore Java/Rails/PHP/CSS/Javascript: Every buzzword covered
Current work
I'm a Java Developer for Vinfolio, a fine wine retailer and collector services company based in San Francisco, CA. Vinfolio's web application encompasses an eCommerce store, a cellar management application, and a gigantic back end management system. Vinfolio.com
Vinotrip
After getting into wine pretty heavily when living in San Francisco, I decided to dive into the wine scene here in Maryland and Virginia. Vinotrip is my blog where I mark down my thoughs, experiences, and tasting notes.

map.vinotrip.com
I created a Rails app to map out the Maryland and Virginia Wineries. You can browse the map, check out tasting room hours, plan a trip, and leave commets on which wineries you liked. This is very much a work in progress, many new features to be rolled out.

Stumbling Donkey
Born when everyone was creating Google Map mashups out of everything, Stumbling Donkey is a catalog of Happy Hours in San Francisco, Washington DC, Baltimore, and Annapolis. Originally written in PHP, I ported it to Rails in 2007. Similarities between this app and map.vinotrip.com are not just skin deep, they shared the same codebase for some time.

Movies
I got a little tired with the available movie ratings systems. Binary (thumbs-up/thumbs-down), three stars, five stars, whatever... there just wasn't enough room. I launched this 100-point system based on the one used in the wine industry. MOvies get 50 possible points for entertainment, 20 possible for story, etc... This site isn't much now beyond a place for me to keep my scores.
