I’ve been thinking lately about the whole Web 2.0 movement. I like the idea of integrating more dynamic means of interacting with sites but the one thing I don’t care for is the cookie-cutter sites of late that are associated with Web 2.0 design style.

The ease of use, the interface, everything about it is, in my opinion, pretty darn spiffy.

“Thank you so much for doing this for me, it’s really nice to have a slick looking design to show my photos in that didn’t cost more than my car. I’ll certainly come back to you the next time I want to re-design one of my sites.”

About Me

My name’s Jen; I’m a cynical, sarcastic, ex-drummer who is fond of dark humor. I've held way too many factory & retail jobs but finally found my calling one Christmas holiday in a dark, musty basement. I am now a CSS & XHTML web standards looney and can be found daily—when I’m not at my Mac—at the local fair-trade coffee shop buying an iced-soy mocha no matter the temperature.

I am also the owner of Pop Stalin Design specializing in CSS & XHTML web design as well as custom WordPress themes.
