About Bacon Bear Productions

What Is The Bacon?

Bacon Bear Productions is a little web development company located in the nature loving plains of Silicon Valley.

Conceived in the snowy winter of '05, BBP was originally intended to be only a fun name for a simple technology blog. Since then, BBP has grown to be a full fledged production company for a number of small web sites as well as the company name for our web oriented consulting business.

While not a big company (bacon bears are fairly solitary creatures), the team here has over 15 years of combined development experience covering a number of up-to-date technologies. Technologies such as CSS, DHTML, Flash, Javascript, MySQL, and Ruby On Rails are all used (and loved!) on a daily basis.

Who Eats The Bacon?

Jeff - Rails dude

Jeff finds bacon particularly tasty, but finds Rails Development even tastier. Jeff’s been working with Rails since it’s beta days and knows the framework inside and out (at least he’d like to think so). Before picking up web development, Jeff was an avid C++ programmer with over 10 years experience engineering software for both large corporations and individuals. Jeff is currently employed by a well known Cupertino company developing software for a well known media player.

Ginger - The Flasher

Ginger’s specialty is all things front end. HTML, CSS, Javascript, Flash; she does it all, and she does it all with style. Her work has been featured by such companies as Gap, Yahoo, Intel, and a number of smaller companies. In Ginger’s free time she maintains the website for Old Master Q Comics and upkeeps her own blog/photography website at gingervitis.net (Be sure to check out her portfolio!). Ginger is currently employed by a yodel loving Sunnyvale web giant developing interactive ads for their front page.

Bacon Bear - Bacon Security

Our namesake and mascot. Bacon Bear comes to us from the snow capped mountains of Lake Tahoe deep in the forests near Northstar Ski Resort. At first he was a bit shy to leave his familiar environments but we were soon able to lure him out with the promise of high pay (in fish) and plentiful options (that taste like bacon).

Since then, Bacon Bear has become a valuable member of our team doing… basically nothing. Honestly I think we’re all just happy he doesn’t eat us.
