I am the senior developer at Superbreak working in ASP.NET MVC.

For over a year, my .NET skills were blunted by the necessity of working almost exclusively in ColdFusion. Still, it gave me chance to get to know MVC a lot more through that sites use of it. When ASP.NET MVC came out, I felt I had a good advantage, and had a stronger knowledge than if I had continued using webforms. I believe that now though, my strengths lie more in the architectural pattern rather than C# itself.

I enjoy the fact that stackoverflow is more community based than Experts Exchange, which really makes users feel isolated.

Also, I've answered more questions in the last couple of months here, than I did in five years on the Experts Exchange.
