It appears we've reached the Crossroads

Greetings All ! I am pleased to be 'back in the saddle', so to speak. If you been wondering where f#&! I've been, I'll tell you...'we right here'. It's true. I have spent the better part of the last 12 months finally building i site's sister business. Often, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary to pause for a moment's reflection. So let me do just that.

My life has undergone some pretty radical changes in this last year, some good, some not so good. I have experienced periods of real darkness, and wondered if I had reached an impasse.. But, alas, after these gloomy times, I found some new 'hybrid vigor'. (apologies to Webb Wilder) The business plan I had worked on finally reached the point of necessitating construction. From where I sat when this realization occurred, I questioned my capacity to..shall I say...pull it off ?

But, as I read over the plan, I remembered my original motivations and inspirations for the project. I also realized that because what I envisioned still didn't exist, it was now or never. And so I set forth to undertake the project...alone. Let me say that the lessons I have learned along the way have fueled my passion for the site I will launch in the next two weeks. It is a story of success and growth. Mostly, I have rediscovered the pride, self respect and determination which had nearly disappeared from my life.

So let me say that I'M GLAD TO BE BACK...AND I AM BIGGER, STRONGER AND FASTER THAN EVER BEFORE ! Be sure to visit My Greatest Cape, if you get a chance. It is my Magnum Opus..so far.

i site has taken on a new challenge, as well ! We have left the 'nuts and bolts' of site building behind. We are now in the exclusive business of web consulting. It is awesome ! It also allows us to handle a much larger client base. We are growing and liking it. It's like my friend Jimmy Cliff told me "Better Days Are Coming"...by and by. We'll talk soon !

web design is our art...

Excellent web design can be defined. It is not, however, a simple definition. In my humble opinion, a 'great site' combines pleasing aesthetics, simple, clear navigational elements, and compelling information architecture...but that definition is from the standpoint of a front-end technologist, not the developer. The developer defines excellent web design as having a W3C standards based, section 508 compliant, clearly defined, minimal, non-redundant, effectively scripted optimized source code. I believe that about wraps the IT definition of excellence. It's only when front and back ends are all they can be that we begin to arrive at excellence. Excellence is my commitment to my clients.
