Welcome to Data Mafia
You have reached the digital stomping ground for Marc. This site is the point of contact for my relationship with technology.
My focus on technology is 2 fold. First is programming, mostly for web, all stages and types. Second is audio ranging from live performance to electronic engineering and consulting.
- Technology: PC (3.x+), Mac (10.x+), and Linux (2.x+ Debian), anything with blinking lights.
- Programming: PHP, Javascript, Ajax (multiple libraries focusing on JQuery), MySQL, HTML/CSS, AS3. More on programming.
- Web and Data: XML, JSON, API's, IDX, RETS, analytics, tracking, analysis, consulting, transformation.
- Miscellaneous: Learning Python then C++ with a goal of building embedded devices. Interest in ARM technology and real time environment control.
Why Data Mafia?
- The domain was available.
- It is catchy and fits into the modern name space for web based endeavors.
- For the record, any considerations regarding the use of mob tactics, illicit behavior, and so on are false.
- Instead, Data Mafia applies to the initiative of making "data behave" or "applying the necessary pressure to technology to reach success.
- Why not? If you need to get a solution to a data or technology problem right now, calling in "Data Mafia" has a certain correctness.
- As far as business goes, my work is not credited to Data Mafia. My LLC is Interzone Multi-Media and is entirely focused on commerce driven solutions.
