My name is Tony Volpe, I’m a 29 year old American who has been living in London for the last 7 or so years. For the last six of those years I’ve worked at unit9 first as a designer/developer, then technical leader for projects, and I now fill the roal of Head of Development. My professional interests are usability, team development, design, flash sites, and inter-group communication of technical challenges.
Outside of work I enjoy running – I’ve completed the 2005 Edinburgh Marathon in 3:55, reading – mostly fiction and science fiction, console and computer games – such as the Final Fantasy series and World of Warcraft.
Through this publication I’d like to highlight issues that come to mind through my day to day work including views on usability through my experience, and solutions to problems that we face quite often in the Web Industry. I may also cover more casual issues that concern my interests outside of my professional life. I intend to keep my professional and personal posts separate through the use of “categories” in the Word Press system, so you the reader will be able to navigate posts more efficiently.
