Hi, my name is Matthew, and I enjoy doing neat things with computers. I'm currently learning Ruby. My latest fascination is making twitterbots because I like the idea of text message interfaces.

Oh, yeah, I consistently ignore Safari's spell catcher as noted above in my horrible spelling.

"Hello. My name is Kris and I'm a weboholic." (Everybody responds, "Hi, Kris!") It's been 10 years since I've hand-coded my first Web site. I'm the art and photography director at the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control and serve as a sparadic back-up to our Webmaster. I'm a family man, married with a 4-year-old princess and 7-week-old prince. I collect comics, record a comic book podcast with my buddies (www.thedollarbin.net), provide lettering and design services to comic book industry professionals and love working with and reading about all things Mac. Basically, I'm a cool, geeky fanboy in a couple areas. Wordpress is cool, Squarespace is cooler. I love the color gray and I'm actively building a collection of comic book t-shirts. I carry a Moleskine (like who doesn't in our industry), tried every concieveable GTD system and app, but recently got turned on to Behance and their Creative Outfitter line of products. That's all I can think of at the moment. I look forward to meeting everyone.

What's up everybody, I'm Chip Oglesby and I'm a online producer at the State Newspaper.

I started here in 2006 and I have my undergrad from Mars Hill College, it's in Asheville NC.

I was a photojournalist before joining the state newspaper.

Currently, I'm doing a lot of interactive coding using AS2 and some AS3 (because of software constraints).

Hope everyone has a great week!

Hey all. I'm Justin Lilly, web developer/designer working for The State newspaper. I attended USC and studied a mix of computers / business and now take design classes at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh (online). I prefer to program in python/django, though I worked with PHP for 8-10 years.

I write semantic HTML (typically 4.01 strict). I like working with 960.gs CSS framework. Templating systems rock my world. I abhor Dreamweaver and don't "get" Fireworks. I use Photoshop everyday and Illustrator every chance I get. I like Open Source, but I'm not a freak about it.

Look forward to meeting you all.

Hi I'm Tim. I am an IT professional, currently going to USC as a media arts student. I've had some exposure to web design and I can pick through HTML fairly easily, however I'm looking to meet new people and getting more involved in web designing and other media related applications.
