Yorgos Konstantinou || Jorge Konou

About

dear you,

Welcome to my personal stigma on the web. I am Yorgos Konstantinou (I also appear under the name Jorge Konou, which is an alteration of my original name). I am 28 year old (born at 2 Dec of 1981 in Edessa). I am currently a resident of Thessaloniki, Greece. I have a BSc in Computer Science from University of Crete and a MSc in the field of Computer Systems from Applied Informatics Department of University of Macedonia (more about my studies on Academic section). I have worked for three years (April 2006 - April 2009) as a Java web developer for a major IT company of Greece. At the moment, I find myself among phases; consequently my job status remains open. However, I am involved in a number of projects (more on Projects section). If you are interested for a copy of my CV or in contacting me for any reason, please feel free to do so and use the following email address: .

Projects

• Cooradio.com
  status: In Production (on 2010-04-20, a new version of cooradio was deployed which contained a large number of new features.)
  information: Cooradio, is a web radio which started at 2008 by a gang of four people. I am a proud member of that gang. I am also responsible for Cooradio's technical existence. I have created and also maintain the web site and the underlying web application of Cooradio which includes managing the content of the site, managing users/producers and also includes some communication functionalities. I also manage and maintain the stream server.
• Kyriosk.gr
  status: In Production.
  information:Kyrios K. (in greek kerios Kappa) is a very talented upcoming musician. Currently, I am developing his web site, which is created using Adobe Flash™. Flash was selected due to the major requirements on the graphical section of the site. So, it was decided that Adobe's Flash was the (only) way to go... Well, that's until HTML 5 is officially released. Until then, I don't think there is any other way to go for rich graphic sites; unless you want to kick some ass in javascript (which I find sometimes very amusing and interesting...).
• frontistirio-mathisi.gr
  status: in production
  information: Frontistirio Mathisi, is private institution for students who want to improve their skills and prepare their successful way to university. A rich graphical web site was created using Adobe Flash ™. The decision to choose Flash was taken due to the same reasons as for KyriosK.gr. A rich graphical web site was created in order to provide something out of the ordinary with a bit of artistic essence that would also reference school and student materials to respective web site sections.

Retrology

• Wonder boy (video game) - this game was the addiction of my early childhood. I still love it and I need to upload my highscore in order to challenge the crowd!
• Atari - Was my first computer. It looked like this one, well...mine didn't have a mouse and screen of its own. It was plugged in the tv screen (yes, a tv output!) and as an input device it used a cassette player.
