Oolong’s Long Oo

The web is about three things, above all*:

1. Communication.

   You want to get things across to people.

2. Aesthetics.

   You want to make things that people want to look at.

3. Interaction.

   You want people to contact you if they have something worth hearing. You may also want them to help you build your online presence, one way or another.

These goals are not unrelated, and getting one wrong will very often undermine the others.

They also depend on things like accessibility, working with web standards and search engine optimisation – profoundly important ideas on the internet, whose main purpose is simply to further these three goals.

As a web developer, editor and designer, my job is to help your web site to do what you need it to do – to use technology to reach human beings. Get in touch to discuss working together, or have a look through my recent web projects.
