Moving on |
||||||||
In a similar vein to Matt Gifford's recent blog post on 'Moving on' (read more here: http://www.mattgifford.co.uk/moving-on) I have the pleasure of announcing that I'm off to pastures new.
I'd like to thank my current employer TDA, a marketing agency in Cheltenham, for the opportunities working with them as afforded me. It has been a really interesting and diverse period of my career and I've been exposed to some really prominent UK brands, covering a wide range of technologies and market sectors.
Going forward I am extremely happy to have accepted a role at Vodafone as a Technical Architect. I'm really looking forward to working with such a recognised brand, and it's a really exciting prospect working for such a technology focussed company, with like minded individuals.
So to wrap up, 'Thanks to the old, and here's to the new'.

James Padolsey has written a great little Auto resize function, you can get it from Github here: https://github.com/padolsey/jQuery.fn.autoResize.
The documentation in the example included with the download above is pretty good, but I've put up an example of it working here as well:
