Well, after yet another website revamp, I feel like I've finally got a site that won't make co-workers laugh when they google my name. Actually, I don't have co-workers any more, and that's the point. I've been self-employed as a freelance web developer for almost a year now, after 10 years in the corporate IT world, and so my personal site has now morphed into a business site with a personal twist.

This won't be a personal blog - I'll be using it mostly to talk about work-related issues and interesting things I encounter as a web developer. If it wasn't for other developers writing online about problems they run into, and the solutions they find, I would probably not have been able to get to the point I am at today, where people pay me to build websites and are happy with the results, so I would love to feel that I'm able to offer the same help back to anyone who needs it.

This site used to be devoted to my personal hobbies such as writing and photography. I've still got a Photography section, because it integrates very nicely with web design and development, but you won't find any of my writing here for the time being. I will find another home for it online somewhere, but to be honest, for the last couple of years I've found myself thinking more and more in visual terms, to the point where I've got very little urge to write any more. Seeing as writing was all I thought I really wanted to do since I was 10 years old, this is a pretty big thing for me.

As you can see, I find it impossible not to talk about myself even in a work-related blog. I promise, I'll try and keep that kind of thing to a minimum!

Long live the new flesh.
