I’ve delivered simple, clear and easy-to-use services for 20 years, for startups, scaleups and government. I write about the nerdy bits here.

Going away to Orient Point again for a few days. Catching a train in about 45 minutes. Spent the morning hacking WordPress into submission without SSH or FTP access on the Matthias website. It looks ugly as anything but its butt got kicked so hard and it’s now behaving lots better. Design will come later (it should always come first, in hand with IA and usability). Still we’re working towards something useful for the not-too-distant future — it’s nothing spectacular, but it does do plenty the old site didn’t, and giving people a content management tool is a great thing in terms of culture-changing how people think about what a website is and ensuring it stays up to date.
