About my blog

Hello, my name is Steven Pothoven, welcome to my blog!

I am a software architect / software engineer for IBM. I have a Master's degree in Computer Science and have been working at IBM since 1995. My specialty is in object-oriented development using Java (J2EE) and I am also a IBM Certified Solution Developer for XML and Related Technologies. The natural progression of my career has moved me toward SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) as both Java and XML are key technologies.

This blog will primarily focus on various computer technologies as I happened to be researching various topics, or reading interesting articles.
