Design Groove or some version of it has existed in my head for a very long time, so its only fitting that I put the time and effort in to finally see it live. I’m excited to finally have my own place in the web world and to officially have a site to direct potential clients and friends a like to see.

While the site itself is designed to act as an online portfolio for the projects I have worked on in the past, it will also hopefully allow me to use the virtual space to experiment on as well as a place to write articles on web related issues. I’m not in the business of being a professional writer but I’ve found that the best way to solidify learning is by attempting to teach other people. With that in mind I hope this blog space becomes a regular part of my working week and to provide people with a resource rich in web related content and tutorials. So much of what I have done since becoming a web professional has been self taught and as any one who has been through similar experiences can tell you, it can be a very frustrating and time consuming practice. I hope that some of the biggest lessons I’ve learnt can be talked about here as well as creating a forum for discussing other issues related to the topic in question.

That being said I am the first to admit that there are always other ways of approaching solutions and am always interested in alternatives or people pointing out incorrect or verbose coding or methodologies.

So without prattling along further I wanted to welcome you officially to my new site and hope that you enjoy what I have put together. Please feel free at any stage to contact me directly at ben@justagroove.net or to comment on any one of my articles.

Cheers and thanks for visiting,

Ben
