I have built a number of websites (including this one). I have several years' experience with PHP, SQL databases (particularly MySQL), HTML, CSS, and content management systems (especially Drupal). I can perform all steps of setting up a website, from the hosting to the development to the design and theme to search engine optimization. Use my contact form if you are interested in hiring me.

- A "social network for social activism," BabelUp is a place for people to connect and talk about global issues.
- Woodruff Arts Center
- The Woodruff Arts Center is one of the largest arts centers in the world, home to renowned arts institutions including the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, the Alliance Theater, and the High Museum. Built with the Woodruff Arts Center Information Technology team.

- My name is Isaac Sukin, and my website hosts my writing, graphic art, and blog.
- Community Bonus Pack
- The highly acclaimed Community Bonus Pack (CBP) for the Unreal Tournament game series is the most internationally renowned series of virtual environments built by non-professionals. I am the co-lead of the team, which hails from 12 countries on 4 continents.
- Warble
- Warble is a demonstration of my Facebook-style Statuses module suite for Drupal. It works like a combination of Twitter and Facebook.
- RUSI Review
- The RUSI Review is a portal for the Royal United Services Institute in London to articles that reference their publications, as well as a place for their own articles responding to others' analysis of world events. RUSI itself is a well-known international security studies research institute. (The site has since been rebuilt.)
- Facebook-style Statues
- Used by well over a thousand websites, the Facebook-style Statuses module builds microblogs for each user of a site, like Twitter and Facebook. Users can post messages to their own profiles or to other users' profiles, and can make @userreferences and #hashtags. I've also written other modules that add the ability to have comments on statuses and send automatic responses to certain administrator-defined statuses.
- Tweet
- Used by several hundred websites, Tweet allows content to be easily posted to Twitter, including the (shortened) URL of the content and the content's title.
- Shorten URLs
- Used by several hundred websites, Shorten URLs provides an application programming interface (API) and graphical user interface (GUI) to shorten URLs with services like TinyURLs and bit.ly.
- Application Toolbar
- Provides a toolbar that stays at the bottom of the window (like Facebook's Application Bar) to hold links and an "alert" dialog (which shows updates from the site that are relevant to the current user).
- User Deco
- Allows users to add decorations (small images) to their profiles, which can be purchased with points earned from participation on a site.
- Testimonials
- Allows anyone to write a testimonial on a site or view others' testimonials, similar to a moderated site Guestbook.
- Stats API
- Collects statistics on content produced or monitored by other modules on a site.
- P2FB (Post to Facebook)
- Similar to the Tweet module, makes it easy to post content to Facebook.
- Political Affiliation
- Allows users to choose their political orientation (left/right) and also allows voting on other users' political orientation. Provides a weighted average displayed on a sliding scale for each user.
- Online Status
- Allows users to choose whether to be shown as "online" or "offline" when visiting a site.
- Forum Jump
- Allows quick and easy jumping from one forum (or a thread in that forum) to another forum via a dropdown selection.
