Philosophy

Having been an avid computer enthusiast (or professed computer geek) for years now, I have certain things I expect from a web page, and strive for when designing my own. I don't feel that a lot of unneccessary clutter and flashy movie clips aid in a website's functionality. I would prefer a simplistic, but well-laid out and executed web site with good contiunity of design any day to one that has a lot of glitz but poor functionality or slow navigation and loading. Additionally websites that update their information and content regularly are always the most fun to continually return to.
