For School
BeerPad http://www.beerpad.com
Currently under construction. This 4th year thesis project utilizes AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) to improve upon the interactivity of a beer recipe management system. The other underlying technologies are PHP and MySQL.

Here are some of the web projects to which I have volunteered my time
For Hobby
Discovery Church http://www.discoverychurch.ca/
My brother-in-law is a pastor for Discovery Church in Bowmanville, Ontario. Originally his sister worked on the site, but when Discovery Church's needs grew, I stepped in to give them a quick face-lift. I continue to maintain this site.
Counter Hack http://www.counter-hack.net/
In 2002 a friend of mine was considering shutting down this site. The website promoted fair gaming in online multiplayer games. Finding his cause worthy, I came into the picture and presented him with a new design and fresh content. The site has evolved over the years and now supports forums, a wiki, a table-less layout. PHP/MYSQL.
Gates of Creation http://library.thinkquest.org/C0116405
In high school I participated in an International Website Competition sponsored by ThinkQuest in which a friend and I placed as finalists and recieved a notable mention. The website we designed is highly interactive with numerous custom Flash examples of how certain computer technologies work, lesson plans for teachers, and an interactive timeline of the history of computers. PHP/MYSQL.
Lost Island http://www.anthonyro.com/lostisland/
This project was exceptionally unique becuase I had to design the cave image in 3D Studio Max. This project was created for a game development journal. The site ran on http://www.lost-island.net (archive.org) for over 1 year before switching owners. Unfortunately, the game was never completed.
PlusOneHost http://www.anthonyro.com/plusonehost/
In the past (2001) I often created websites in exchange for free services. In this particular case, I was given free server space in exchange for designing this hosting company's website. The design ran on http://www.plusonehost.com (archive.org) for almost 2 years before a re-design and change of owners.
Westdale Secondary http://www.anthonyro.com/westdalesecondary/
In grade 9 (1999) I volunteered to re-design my school's antiquated website. This design ran on http://hwdsb.on.ca/westdale (archive.org) for a few years before I graduated.
