New website for National Publishers in Canberra

February 19, 2008

A new site I designed for National Publishers recently went live.

Melissa wrote some of the words while I looked after the visual design, HTML/CSS, and a customised content management system that allows the client to make updates to the websites themselves.

Some new websites and about to go to the USA

July 27, 2006

Here is a couple of small sites I have been working on. Event Essentials and Sustainable Tourism.

Right now I am packing my bags head overseas for a 3 month cycling holiday. I can’t wait! One of my first objectives will be to catch up with another web head who loves cycling and climb some of the hillls around San Francisco.

I hope I can keep up.

Working with Oxfam Australia

March 30, 2006

A few weeks ago I commenced a 3 day a week position as Front-end Web Developer with Oxfam Australia. It is a varied and challenging position that will keep me on my toes.

In the coming months I will be working on enhancing the website’s interface, web standards compliance, accessibility and information architecture. I think the site is good but there is much to be done.

Oxfam is an excellent cause so I urge you to get active.

Heading to WE05

September 27, 2005

This afternoon I am flying to Sydney for WE05. Last year was excellent and this year looks to be even better.

If you are not lucky enough to have a seat you can listen to full sessions via PodCast. This is a very generous gesture from the WE05 organisers and speakers and they deserve to be commended for such. At the same time, if a conference about web development cannot take full advantage of distributing information via the web who can? ;)

If you are going I hope to meet you there and share a beer with you afterwards.

Well written words

May 10, 2005

The Woman of Words needed a website to help her find some freelance work.

The site is about as plain vanilla as they come but my rationale was that when you are promoting someone who works with content their site should be as transparent as possible to ensure that nothing detracts from such content.

Incidentally the site is the exact same markup as this one, just with a different stylesheet attached. Not anymore.

I really thought web development had moved on from this sort of thing…

August 24, 2004

I was told to use IE when trying to visit a govt website today. Firefox and Safari users are told to use IE instead.
A colleague questioned the site’s creators on this method and was told due to accessibility reasons it was best to use IE. Isn’t that sort of philosophy completely against the entire notion [...]
