05/09/07 @media Ajax 2007

21/03/07 Speaking at eTech

On Sunday I'm packing my bags and heading for San Diego for eTech. I've always wanted to go to eTech - it seems to be one of the most interesting events on the circuit - and this year I'm incredibly...

07/03/07 Leaving freelancing

After 5 good years I'm hanging up my freelancing spurs and settling into a more sedentary existence. Well, not exactly. I'm becoming Head of User Experience at Trampoline Systems. As a small start-up...

10/08/06 Think Blogging

I know I've not been posting here too regularly but I've not been completely out of the blogging loop... I'm using Donotremove as a place for my more general articles on things like the emerging web...

04/08/06 The Spring Experience

Who's this bloke then? Yep, I recognise him too... So, I'm off to Miami in December to speak at The Spring Experience! I'm excited and a little nervous. The sessions are super-long, weighing in at 90...

01/04/06 A New Donotremove

This redesign has been 18 months coming. I did the original design over Christmas 2004 but I just couldn't find the time to follow it through. Since then the design has been through several revisions,...

25/08/05 Will Barras Blog

It's been a long time coming but willbarras.com has finally gone live! It started out as a proper portfolio site but we've ended up with an illustration blog. Will's work is AMAZING and I've not seen...

15/06/05 AJAX Navigation Fixes

I know I've been quiet for a while but this is why: Fixing the Back Button and Enabling Bookmarking for AJAX Apps. It's been a couple of weeks in the writing and researching but I'm hoping it's going...

19/05/05 Content with Style

I've been very quiet of late and here's the reason. I'm pleased to announce the launch of Content with Style, finally. It's been an awful long time coming but we're finally decided that it's more...

09/01/05 Mike in Print Goes Digital

The .Net magazine article I was in has been published on the interweb and syndicated, apparently. So there's Ditch the Day Job on the .Net Mag site and Ditch the Day Job on the MaxPC site....

26/09/04 Ramblers Association and Locus Design sites Go Live

It's been a ridiculously busy few weeks but I have a couple of site launches to show for it. First up is a small one: Locus Design. I built this one with Draught Associates, who designed it. It's...

14/09/04 Mike in .net Magazine

Well, this is my first appearance in the press. Gary Marshall interviewed me for his article 'Freelancing: Ditch the Day Job' in this month's .net magazine... and it's a good article too: well...

29/03/04 Business.gov.uk Wins!

Apparently, www.business.gov.uk, which I worked on with Nykris, won best site at the IVCA awards last night. Fantastic! Many congratulations to everyone who worked on it. The next version is even...

23/01/04 Back from Holiday!

I'M BACK!!! I have finally returned from the Far East, after 5 weeks visiting Hong Kong, Yunnan and Beijing. It was good to get back to Hong Kong (I was brought up there) - it still feels like home. I...

30/10/03 Postage Paid Zen Garden Submission

Woohoo! My Zen Garden submission made it... I'm dead chuffed about that and more than a little bit relieved. I was trying to do something a little bit different to the other hi-design submissions...
