About

Orange Iceberg web development is a sole proprietorship of Slobodan Kovačević. Which is just a fancy way of saying that I do freelance work under the name of Orange Iceberg. Want to hire me?

Who am I?

My name is Slobodan Kovačević. I have been a professional web developer for past decade, more precisely since 1998. Computers have been my love since I was a little kid and I have been messing with them way before I started using them professionally.

I have been freelancing from 1998 until September 2001 when I co-founded Array Studio, a small web development company which at one point had grew up to 6 developers/designers. Over period of 7 years I worked as CEO and lead developer in Array Studio.

In June 2008 I sold my share of Array Studio and went back to freelancing through Orange Iceberg.

Why the name Orange Iceberg?

An iceberg is sometimes over 90% underwater and only tip is visible. Well, most web applications (and software in general) are like that too - there’s a pretty user interface that makes about 10% of a web app, and then 90% of the programming work is under the covers.

I make web apps and web apps are like icebergs in some sense, so it just made sense.

And why Orange… Well, why not? :)

What do I do?

Last year or two I have been focusing on creating web apps using Ruby on Rails, but before that I have mainly used PHP for web development. Actually, there’s a What do I do page - so read it for more details.

Do you have another question?

If there’s anything you’d like to know about Orange Iceberg or myself please don’t hesitate to contact me.
