You haven't listed any of your needs or wants that you wish to satisfy. Why isn't that just a short bullet point list somewhere? Why isn't all of this a collection of short bullet point lists:

* Skill set

* Achievements at last company

* Education

Considering the whole point of this page is to generate leads to request your resume why is it so long? why not keep it vague?

Some of your opening sentences need a lot of work. In fact, just remove words. Keep removing words:

"My experience with ArcObjects is extensive. I have been using ArcObjects for well over 3 years and have been using the framework almost on a daily basis"

= * 3+ years developing on ArcObjects

And this? why?

Python is one of the worlds best interpreted languages. Even though it is more than 20 years old, it is just now coming to the world stage. I use it in most of my crone jobs that need to be completed on a set schedule.

Silverlight and me are like a pea in a pod.

(thats actually quite hilarious - do you mean two peas in a pod?)

Hobbies = irrelevant.

Hey all, Its the poster.

Over the past few weeks, I have learned that my job is moving to a location I would very much not like to travel to. So I decided to do what I can to stand out. Its pretty tough finding full time remote jobs for developers, or at least it has been where I looked. So I decided to try and be a cut above the rest and create something that might be an extra push for a job.

So I am looking and could only hope someone who looks at this is interested in hiring a Full Time Remote Worker.

btw, I wouldn't mind traveling/flying once a month for a few days at a time to the office. I know there would be some requirements that involve face to face. I am definitely willing to talk it over.

Never publish your salary; you've just lost your negotiating power with anyone who's read this post.

EDIT: Looks like the comment containing salary info was deleted.
