About Craig Jackson

I am an experienced Web Developer working for a Salt Lake City, Utah Web Development firm. In addition, I work on several side projects to keep my time absorbed in everything www.
Recent Projects: 
Google Summer of Code
The Fans Scorecard
I was accepted into the Google Summer of Code (GSOC) for 2008 with my project (Validation API) for Drupal. I have finished my time with the Summer of Code project, and have released a beta version of Validation API. However, I will continue to maintain this project for Drupal.
The Fans Scorecard is one of my personal projects. The one thing that separates Soccer (or Football depending on your location) from many other sports is the inability to look at a stat sheet to see which players performed at their top. So, I have developed this site to give fans a place to rate their favorite and worst players of each game.
