MiftyIsBored.com is a weblog created out of sheer boredom. The purpose of this blog is to talk about topics that I find interesting: software development, basketball, video games and comic books. I happen to be a Montreal-based software developer with over 13 years professional experience in software development. I’ve also been developing on the web for over 12 years. This blog is where I share my knowledge on wide range of topics that I like or that I find awesome. This ranges from Batman to ninjas to WordPress plugin development and everything in-between.
You’re probably wondering why I chose miftyisbored.com instead of simply mifty.com. Well for years now, mifty.com linked to a Japanese adult website and I simply got tired of waiting for the site owner to give up the name so I went with miftyisbored.com (I was also inspired by Aziz Ansari’s azizisbored blog)
