Hi, I'm Benedikt Deicke, and I'm a freelance web and software developer. I'm mainly building user focused web applications using Ruby on Rails and JavaScript. Additionally I'm currently studying for my master's degree and enjoying photography in my spare time. Feel free to get in touch with me, I'm available for hire!

ClockingIT

Since last week I’m using ClockingIT to track the time I spent on client-projects. Some of the features are (taken from clockingit.com ):
  • time tracking & reports
  • milestones & due dates
  • timeline & activity log
  • notifications, rss & iCal
  • integrated wiki
  • english, brazilian, french, german, spanish & norwegian languages

The application is totally free. You’re able to download the sources or simply register an account … Oh, and by the way: it’s a rails-app … ;-)

Now working for Bytebetrieb

I’m now working for the mac-fans at bytebetrieb.com. Thanks to Moritz and Stefan — who contacted me using Xing — for giving me the chance to do some useful stuff! ;-) I’m primarily working with their in-house CMS called Fast Publishing System (FPS). Check out their website and blog!
