Sunday 15 February 2009

My name is Bob and I have been designing websites for about 5 yrs now. I did learn the basics at Leeds Metropolitan University while I was taking a degree in Computing but I must admit that I am largely self taught from books and tutorials on the web.

I have just been asked to add a blog to a website I am designing for a new client so I thought it was about time I had a go at writing one of my own. I will use it to talk about the sites I am working on and any problems I hit.

I also do occasional typesetting work for a publishing house that specialises in books and teaching materials for people with reading and other learning difficulties. This entails using Adobe InDesign and image editing software.

I used to run an IT Support Service building computers and networks for small businesses but arthritis has made crawling about under desks impossible. Screwdrivers and other tools are a complete no no now so I have switched over to working at my keyboard. Even with my twisted hands I can still type with one finger on each hand and it is surprising just how fast you can go when you have to.
