			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A script that extends Leftronic&#8217;s business dashboards.</p>
<p><span id="more-248"></span></p>
<p>Leftronic provides one of the few free dashboard services on the web. Since they target businesses, they limit their options to fit widescreen monitor deployments.</p>
<p>Leftronic Hack is a Chrome extension that plugs into the dashboard Javascript to set a custom grid size, so you can fit more or less data on your dashboard. It works great with Chrome&#8217;s kiosk mode. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s also my first Chrome extension, and it was a great three-hour project.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An easy-to-use, maintainable website platform for performers.</p>
<p><span id="more-186"></span></p>
<p>Our first product lets groups build a website to promote their group and their shows, and creates a showcase of their photos and vides by integrating with services like Vimeo, YouTube, and iTunes. It&#8217;s easy to use, visually stunning, and deeply customizable. Eventually, we hope to make it a network for dancers and performers, which you can traverse by following the relationships artists and performers have with each other.</p>
<p>Places where the Internet lags behind real life in capturing and sharing our everyday lives are great places to be for a media entrepreneur. There&#8217;s a huge opening in the space &#8211; arts groups have not traditionally been the fastest to adopt technology, but there are plenty of talented crews looking for a simple, easy-to-use, and impressive web presence. We can fill the gap between cheap templates and expensive freelancers, and by taking the burden of technical maintenance off their shoulders, we can build lasting relationships with our customers.</p>
<p>Performers: Build a portfolio. Showcase your choreography and arrangements. Show off some dance moves. Relive memories.</p>
<p>Everyone else: Think of this as a place to discover all the talent in the neighborhood you never knew about.</p>
<p>The current competitors on the market are <a href="http://www.bandpage.com/">Bandpage</a> and <a href="http://onesheet.com">Onesheet</a>. Both of them are well-executed, very successful products, but they&#8217;re all focusing on professionals, and they only validate the size of the market. And, like <a href="http://about.me">About.me</a>, they&#8217;re a bit simplistic. We can do better.</p>
<p>Are you a developer, performer, or event planner who would like to get involved? Let us know, leave a message (we won&#8217;t publish it).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A website for Princeton&#8217;s freshest hip hop dance group.</p>
<p><span id="more-145"></span></p>
<p>Chaos Theory is a hip-hop crew which recruits from Princeton&#8217;s various dance groups. Started in 2010, the group has since opened for dancers including Kaba Modern, Pacman &#038; Moon (from I.aM.mE crew), and Victor Kim (from Quest Crew). In summer of 2011 I started working with the crew to create a online presence for the group and its members.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From <em>Random Hacks of Kindness</em>, a rainfall visualization in D3.js.</p>
<p><span id="more-3"></span></p>
<p>PITCH_Africa builds rainwater harvesting devices for rural Africa, ranging in size from a personal water collection kit to a soccer field that can store 1,000,000 liters of water. </p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.raymondzhong.com/projects/pitchafrica" title="PitchAfrica Rainfall Map">PITCH_Africa Rainfall Map</a> identifies how suitable locations around the world are for rainwater harvesting using a heatmap generated with D3.js. Click on a country for a breakdown of rainfall and reservoir water levels by month. There are three choices for reservoir size &#8211; also try changing the number of people drawing water from the reservoir.</p>
<p>I built this map with Brendan Wright (Princeton &#8217;15) at Random Hacks of Kindness, a Princeton hackathon in Fall of 2011. I made the map portion of the project in D3.js and also managed the overall design. It&#8217;s still under active development, and we&#8217;re working on algorithms to make the map look better and convey information more precisely.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m currently a second-year student at Princeton in computer science and sociology. I usually work as a front-end web developer and data visualization designer, and occasionally write about technology entrepeneurship.</p>
<p>Check out some of my latest projects.</p>
<p><span id="more-31"></span></p>
<p>Previously, I worked on hardware for a number of engineering competitions, and managed a regional robotics team with 30 people and a $20,000 annual budget.</p>
<p>In my spare time, I enjoy writing, dancing, and chess.</p>
<p>I like making things and meeting people! If you&#8217;re reading this, say <a href="mailto:hello@raymondzhong.com">hello</a>.</p>
