A web development consultancy run by Rik Lomas. I focus on making well-designed, interactive websites that people love to use.
I will be co-teaching a 10 week course on Front-End Web Development at General Assembly London for people who want to know their HTML from their Javascript. The course starts on the 22nd of May and is two nights a week. Find out more and book a seat here.
I'll be speaking at Figtalks about web development on the 23rd of May from 7pm. Find out more details on their site here.
From the 1st of May, each Tuesday from 2–4pm, I will be giving away technology advice to any budding start-up owners over a cup of tea at the Google Campus café. Want to talk about UX? The methodology of development? How to find a designer? Anything you like. There's no catch or commitment. Email me to arrange a slot!
Not in London? I will also reply to emailed questions in the slots, please email to book.
I've worked closely with start-ups (both funded and bootstrapped) and some of Europe's top design agencies on user experience, front- and back-end development. Some of the companies I've worked with over the last few years include:
Scott Hanselman writes about icons that are based on things we don't use any more. For example, the good old floppy disk means save and clipboards meaning paste
This YouTube video by the English National Opera interviews everyone's professional curmudgeon and novelist Will Self about the internet and recommendation engines.
iOS Developer Daniel Hooper invents a new way of editing text on the iPad, still one of the trickier things to do with the iPad. Personally, I think this is a great way to solve the problem even if it's only a power user feature.
