Mark Woodman was a contributing author to Sams.net's "Macromedia Web Publishing Unleashed" and "Web Publishing Professional Reference Edition" back in the days when Shockwave was new. (Remember Shockwave?) As a developer he has since played the part of Frogger, jumping from one sinking tech startup log to the next. Mark is currently a software engineer at Intelligent Software Solutions in Colorado Springs and is happy to report this particular log is floating nicely. He is also a contributer to the ROME project, an open source Java library for consuming and producing RSS and Atom feeds. Mark holds a BA in communications from Wheaton College and is pursuing a Masters in computer science from Colorado Technical University.
