If we're doing feedback on version-controlled-via-Github "interactive" resumes, my I present mine?

http://judy.github.com/

- It parses via the hResume microformat, although I've never been able to fully test that. Is there a way to do that now?

- It prints quite nicely; there are hidden sections that allow me to move the contact information up top when you're printing it, more like a traditional resume.

- It's responsive. It should look good on any phone, tablet, or traditional display.

Please, please fork it if you like it. You have my full permission. (I mean, just don't copy the content, mmmkay?)



Actually, I'm going to reply myself as I'm looking at it again. I built this when Bootstrap was hot shit; it's now a bit cliche-looking, so to speak. I may play with the styles.

I've also gone back and forth on having a picture or not. That pic is on every other "resume" site out there, like Dice or StackOverflow Careers or LinkedIn.

I'm also not looking for a job currently, but I AM looking to speak at more events, now that I'm doing open source work for a living. I wonder how the structure should change?

It gave me a first impression of you, one that was more affable/likable (a better picture of you, that your skills or GPA cannot give). So, in my view, leave it there.

Why don't you search for interesting tech gatherings in and around your areas and offer yourself as a lineup speaker? One example:

I ended liked your presentation aesthetics better than v33ra's resume below, even though both of you seem to be using hResume.

Props for the manner of execution. IMO, it looks relevant, pleasing and marketable. Don't worry too much about how it looks. Yes, there's always going to be some "Haters gonna hate", but I doubt it would be for your CV.
