Three weeks today, I'll be landing in Austin, Texas for SXSW. I cannot tell you how excited I am about going to this event again.
Two years ago, A collegue and I attended to what I thought was just going to be another industry do. How wrong I was. The inspiration fuelled my creativity and design direction for about six months. Little did I know then that in two years time I would be sitting on one of the panels. Nervous? Me?

Thanks Rob, I was kind of feeling left out. I love Memes I do (In my best South Walian accent).

It's that time of year again when Emma and I set off to deepest Europe in search of the white stuff - I'm not talking hard drugs here of course - but snow and it looks like there's going to be plenty of it this year.

A week or so ago, can't remember exactly when, I followed a link from Jon's site to the latest Beta of Camino. I've used Camino a few times over the months, mostly when it was in early alpha stage, but ended up ditching it for Firefox.
I've been using it pretty much exclusively for a week or so now and it is very good.

What a year. What. A. Year.
From launching this site, being ill and getting to meet so many new friends - it's been eventful that's for sure.
I don't really know where to start, so much stuff has happened but I'll try and be brief.

A couple of weeks ago Emma and I took a holiday to my parent's new pad in a little place called Luz, near Lagos, on the southern coast of Portugal.

Marko at mcville.net was nice enough to ask to interview me. Of course I obliged. There's some other great interviews on there, particularly fellow brits John Oxton and Simon Collison. So, go on, get yourself a nice cup of tea and have a read.

My host, Dreamhost, comes bundled with IMAP email (which is great btw. Mike explains the benefits much better than I could). SquirrelMail is Dreamhost's webmail client of choice.
For a while now, SquirrelMail has been bugging me. Now don't get me wrong, SquirrelMail is has some great features: It's stable, feature-packed, fairly configurable but BY GOD it's been beaten with the ugly stick.
These links are now pulled from my del.icio.us account. You can subscribe to the feed if you like.

I'm a graphic designer from near Cardiff in the UK. I've been a designer for over ten years now and primarily work on the web. I'm still partial to a bit of print every now and then though. I used to work for Agency.com in London as an Art Director before working as a Senior Designer for the BBC in sunny Cardiff. This was all before I took leave of my senses and formed my own design consultancy, Mark Boulton Design Ltd.
I've got a thing about grids and typography and occasionally ramble on about them to anyone who will listen.
If you're after simple, clean and effective web design; let me know.
