The shameless self-promotion site of Harri Kauhanen
Antichrist was brutal and still wonderful watching experience. People saying von Trier hates women are likely lacking wholehearted empathy.
My name is Harri Kauhanen. This is my shameless self-promotion site™.
I conceptualize, visualize and develop web-based services for consumers. I advocate web standards, open source and simple technical solutions. My focus, however, is to create services that people actually want to use. My key strengths are:
I currently work as a web developer at Futurice, but I spend half of my working time under the alias Humaneq.
Contact me: harri(put the AT sign here)humaneq.com
In Futurice I am the Rails ambassador and a member of a enthusiastic user experience team. I often work in multiple roles, but my major post is to do hands-on programming using Ruby on Rails.
I was the main architect and Java developer of Kuvaboxi (now the most popular photo-sharing service in Finland). Currently I work with a number of Facebook applications.
I have influenced the way projects are carried out in Futurice, and adoption of Scrum framework in particular.
Humaneq is my own little business I run for fun. My technical focus is on Ruby based web frameworks and cloud computing. I also do "stuff" I usually don’t at Futurice, such as interaction design, graphics, HTML/CSS, JavaScript and web marketing.
With Humaneq I encourage myself to play with latest technologies, experiment with consumer service concepts, and be as creative as possible.
haukut.fi is a very cool social site for Finnish dog lovers and is currently under testing phase (with a number of private testers).
