I received this email from a good friend and former colleague yesterday; a very experienced senior web designer who’s been away travelling for the last 8 months or so.
My old boss sent me this as way to get working again when I get back but it looks a bit like you do loads of graft [...]
After a pretty crazy few days of sensory and information overload in Vegas, it’s time to look back and take stock of what has come out of the conference. I’m writing this from by the Pool at the Venetian – it’s nice to have time to myself again, and no obligations save making sure i [...]
After a great couple of days spent chilling out in and around Boulder City, NV - I headed to Vegas, dumping the rental car and ‘enjoying’ a high-speed taxi ride to the Venetian. I think the driver may have had too much coffee, as he also drove off as soon as i had paid and [...]
Having spent the last 9 months working with Silverlight on a daily basis, I’ve grown to love it and hate it – on a roughly 80% - 20% split. The love is down to its power and potential, the things that are possible – and (having gained expertise throughout our team) the speed with which [...]

The theme you’re looking at is something of an evolutionary leap from my old site; last updated over 5 years ago and still visible for the moment at www.space-scape.co.uk to give you some context. In fact, as a special treat - take a look at my first [...]
Shortly after FOWD last year, I was inspired to revamp my site, and start a blog (yes - this one, almost a year later!) Around this time, I caught a documentary presented by the inimitable Mr Stephen Fry about the printing press inventor Johannes Gutenberg.
It’s an excellent bit of presenting, and a great insight into [...]
So after over 5 years of stagnation, the old space-scape has been retired and I have finally got around to setting myself up with a blog.
