Melbourne Massive is the ultimate social/networking event for Melbourne’s web community — a massive end-of-year function that brings together graphic artists, code monkeys, content writers, project managers, interface designers, information architects and other web professionals. And best of all, attendance to Melbourne Massive is free!

Make yourself useful on the 14th of November 2006.

Celebrate usability around the world.

I have just returned from a wonderfully exhausting trip to the USA and Europe.

Some of the colourful places I visited were Yosemite National Park, New York, Paris and the French Alps.

I photographed a healthy amount of the trip so feel free to check out some of my photos.

A nice clean site that I helped develop for Euroluce Lighting Environments recently went live.

I looked after the CSS, Flash and JavaScript.

Here is a couple of small sites I have been working on. Event Essentials and Sustainable Tourism.

Right now I am packing my bags head overseas for a 3 month cycling holiday. I can’t wait! One of my first objectives will be to catch up with another web head who loves cycling and climb some of the hillls around San Francisco.

I hope I can keep up.

I am going to be in San Francisco in early August and will be attending WordCamp 2006.

WordCamp is a 1-day conference for WordPress users and developers.

It will be very nerdy but I should learn a lot.

Working for Lemonade I wrote the HTML and CSS the 2006 Melbourne Festival website.

The ‘My Favourite Travel Photo’ exhibition is a fundraising event that will showcase and auction 40 travel photos from members of the public. The photos will be selected by an expert panel of judges including Penny Stephens, photographer for The Age and Christian Pearson, lecturer in photography at CAE.

What a fantastic initiative and cause.

I recently finished designing and developing a small website for Private Label Proteins.

Working for Huge Object I helped develop the front end of the Unclaimed Super website.

Go and recover the $1,000s of superannuation that you forgot about.
