jQuery is a new JavaScript framework that is very useful for browser-side web development. It allows web developers to create interesting animations that give web sites a Web 2.0 look. jQuery brings many new effects and Ajax support. I am a fan of jQuery, because I enjoy its simplicity and lack of verbosity. The reason jQuery has become popular is that it eliminates a hefty chunk of cross-browser issues.

Dynamic Web sites are easier to maintain, upgrade, and build upon than statically made sites. They respond to different parameters (for example, the time of day or the version of the visitor's Web browser). They also have a "memory", allowing for users registration and login, e-commerce, and similar processes. The combination of PHP, Apache, MySQL, powered by Zend Framework is my favorite way to develop dynamic Web sites. I have developed a functional discussion forum, which you can find and test on my web page.

Content Management System (CMS) makes mainteinance of web sites easier for non-programmers. CMS serves to update web contents, insert images and articles to the site without a need of writing a code. I have experience with open-source CMS such as Drupal, Joomla, and Wordpress. I will be working on developing my own custom-made CMS in the near future.
