Web development

Today the web has gone beyond the browser and now content is syndicated through XML-based technologies, re-purposed for desktop and mobile applications and AJAX and web service-driven functionalities are commonplace.

With the emergence of the social web (or for want of a better phrase, Web 2.0), individuals are able, more than ever to connect with each other to form communities sharing common interests, regardless of location, class or race. The control over the dissemination of information has been put in the hands of the people and now anyone can publish anything (text, photos, video) and reach a global audience within seconds.

As the complexity of web applications increases, writing well-structured code is more important than ever. This is as much an art as it is a science. Since the beginning (for me at least, back in 1999) I have followed the standards-based approach to front end web development through the layered production of XHTML, CSS and JavaScript. This is bound up in the framework of accessibility and scalability to ensure your website or application is accessible and extensible now, and in the future.

Along with these front end technologies I use PHP and MySQL to power the back end to create dynamically-driven websites and applications.
