Welcome to Werkema.com, the home page of Sean Werkema, a
software developer from Pennsylvania, USA.
I'm a graduate of Penn State with a
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science.
I write software, build
and run commercial web sites, and
do a little consulting on the side. More...

I've written lots of software over the years, and you can download
a few of the more useful non-commercial programs. Right now, all of
these downloadable programs are freeware. More...
Quick Links:
I maintain a few pages detailing information on the extended
Werkema family. If you're a Werkema or a genealogist, these pages
may be of interest to you. More...
Also, if you're planning to come for a visit and don't know how
to get to our house, we have a map
available. (It's a .PDF file, so you'll need to get the freely available
Adobe Acrobat Reader
to view it if you don't already have Acrobat.)
New! I've added a photo gallery section for all the photos
I've been taking on my nice new shiny little digital camera, a
Pentax Optio S5i.
So far, I only have the family reunion photos up, but more will likely
appear, so visit regularly, or subscribe to the
RSS feed.
You may also see photos by my friends and family
appear in the galleries, so be sure to check back often!
I have built and run several commercial web sites for the chemical
industry. Here are some of the more notable ones:

Quick Links:
| AFEAS |
The Alternative Fluorocarbon Environmental Acceptability Study |
| The Alliance |
The Alliance for Responsible Atmospheric Policy |
| GGEEC |
The Greenhouse Gases Emissions Estimating Consortium |
| ICCP |
The International Climate Change Partnership |
You might be wondering why I've got a web page dedicated to
my laptop. The answer is simple: it's a
Sony PCG-U101, a special super-small computer sold exclusively in Japan.
Information on it is hard to find anywhere, and resellers of it
and its accessories are even harder to find. So I'm building a page
that contains everything I've learned, just in case you want to learn
about it. More...
I am asked, more frequently than I'd expect, what books I recommend
for a variety of different programming topics. As often as I am asked
this, I have finally decided to produce a list of the best of the best.
I own and have read and can often quote each of the books in this list,
and I have not included any books I have not read (nor have I included
several hundred more that I own but don't consider good enough to make
The List).
I have also included below the list an introduction for people
who might like to learn programming, which roughly describes a
plan you can follow if you want to know everything I know. It's not
a perfect plan, but it will help newbies to locate the right resources.
Everybody has favorite links. This page
has several of the more interesting programming-related links that
I've uncovered. If you're a computer scientist, a computer programmer,
or you're studying to become one, this page may have some useful
sites you never knew existed. More...
My Spam Policy
ALL UNSOLICITED COMMERCIAL E-MAIL WILL BE DELETED, UNREAD.
NO EXCEPTIONS FOR ANY PERSON FOR ANY REASON.
This policy is strictly enforced by a variety of measures that
may include blacklists, whitelists, pooling, and heuristics.
Certain ISPs have been blacklisted entirely due to the abundance of
e-mail arriving from them.
Thus if you have sent me a message and I haven't answered, there's
a fair chance it got deleted as spam. If you want to contact me, and
you want me to actually read your message, use my
contact form. I at least look at the
mail that comes from it.
My web site is best viewed using FIREFOX, the Browser You Can Trust.
Are you worried about viruses? Pop-up windows? Weird security glitches? I switched
from Microsoft Internet Explorer to Mozilla Firefox over two years ago and
never looked back. Best of all... Firefox is 100% free. Let me
say that again for those of you who didn't believe it the first time: 100%
free. No strings attached.
So what are you doing just sitting there? Go download your own copy today and
find out for yourself why millions of other people are doing the same thing.
