I have been working on the site for over a month and finally gave it room to ’stretch her legs’  like any project or client work that I undertake I ultimate aim is to  create a funkadelic, effective and user friendly website.Over the years I have wanted to create a CMS which would allow me to make a great looking website but more importantly gave it some strength so that updating could be easier but inlcude social media tools like twitter for example.

Wordpress became my friend.

I asked myself a question, what did I want from this new website?

1. Blog more.  I want to come up with new ideas and talk about them.  I might even throw in a few ‘15 Greatest Blog posts’ type of posts too.
2. Northern Ireland is really turning into a new creative hub and its an exciting time to be a designer, to do that I must be recognised.  Therefore I bring you my new online home.
3. Socialise more and meet with other creatives.  With the help of twitter I have done this a little, but I wanted to concrete my arrival so thats why I have included my twitter updates on the new site.
4. Wordpress.  I wanted to learn wordpress. Its a great blogging tool and used in the right way it can be a great CMS too, which is what I’ve used for my new site. This makes things a whole lot handier to manage and there are a tonne of useful plugins available to help achieve certain tasks a lot quicker.

I hopefully will keep to my new deal, and I can achieve all I want to with this new online home.  I appreciate any feedback so get commenting ;-)
