Hi, my name is Per Jakobsen
I'm currently working as Senior Consultant specializing in ASP.NET and SharePoint for Kraftvaerk which is a small danish consultancy firm specializing in web technologies.
I also have a part time job as Instructor for DevelopMentor where I'm teaching the Essential SharePoint for Developers course.
My background goes all the way back to the stone age of computer programming.
- I started as a COBOL programmer on a mainframe computer
- Entered the new age with 4th generation languages (ADABAS/NATURAL) which was supposed to save the world
- Got into PC programming in Pascal, C++, Paradox and dBASE
- Further along to client/server programming using Paradox and PowerBuilder against Oracle and Sybase
- Took the deep dive into Embedded ANSI C programming
- And finally as a natural progressing ended in my current position with .Net programming with a focus on SharePoint
On the personal plane I'm married to Sussie and am stepdad to Nicklas, who in turn is stepdad to Bella Nova, which then makes me stepgrandstepdad.
In my spare time I'm playing Bridge when I'm not sitting in front of the computer or reading computer related books on my REB1200 ebook.
