As a Calvin and Hobbes fan, Michael decided to build a basic search engine for all Calvin and Hobbes strips, using his LAMP environment, a complete script he found online, and the strip's collection. The search engine allows exact phrase search, and specific date look-up and has been featured on Slate, Gizmodo, The Atlantic, Neatorama and many more.

During Michael's first semester of Computer Science, he quickly adapted his new found skills to his love for gaming. In over 2000 lines of C++ code (all in the same function), Michael wrote his first game: a simple text-based monster battle RPG game.

After taking a course on cryptology in college, Michael chose his favorite cipher (the Vigenère) for use encrypting non-critical information online. To allow himself to do this, and to gain a better understanding of the cipher he built this simple web tool in one day.

In an attempt to learn more about Ajax, online sessions, and functional design, Michael created a semi-functional social news site in two weeks, similar to Digg or reddit. Discover incorporates Ajax, user profiles, and a strong LAMP environment.

This simple online copy/paste tool was born out of a need for Michael to quickly and easily transfer simple, short lines of text (such as a phone number or WiFi key code) to another computer or user. To save time and paper, Michael quickly wrote up this useful tool.
