Blogging Roller

About this blog...

I'm Dave Johnson. I'm a software developer, open web advocate, blogger and web geek from Raleigh, North Carolina. I work for Wayin as a software developer on the REST API, backend services and things some call "dev-ops." You can read more about Wayin via my Pinboard links and more about my career in my Linked In profile. I'm also a member of the Apache Software Foundation and PMC chair for Apache Roller.

Blogging Roller is my personal weblog where I write about the things that interest me like open source software development, web development, Java, blog/feed technologies and whatever else comes up that feels bloggable.
