CodeDiesel is the home of developer Sameer Borate, an independent programmer working in Open Source technologies. This site is called CodeDiesel for no reason other than that I found it attractive. It’s a digital habitat for me to post articles, tutorials, and comments on subjects that I find interesting and useful, and hopefully to other web professionals, both developers and designers. The ideas are about software in general and php/mysql in particular.

I currently work as a freelance back-end developer, primarily in PHP/MySQL. I also provide integration services for various opensource applications and I’m available for consulting if you have any requirements.

Contact

Regarding any comments or suggestions you may have for this site or any of the sites content, or you have any questions you want to ask me; please contact me at metapix [at] gmail.com. Please do not send emails to request help in debugging code. I get a large number of emails and it is difficult to attend to them all.

Mistaken Identities

On the Internet it is quite easy, and many times dangerous to have some information about you or your site mistakenly linked (either deliberately or accidentally) to some other source unrelated to you. It is best to err on the side of caution and clarify to readers the source of the mistaken identity. The following lists some links that I’m personally not connected to in any way:
