About RDJS

I am a Web Developer who lives and works in London. This is my personal site where I occasionally blog about things to do with making websites that interest me.

I work during the day for Wallpaper* Magazine running wallpaper.com and am not looking for another job. I do however take on freelance projects in my spare time.

You can follow me on twitter as @goodmonkey at twitter.com/goodmonkey.

About this site

This site is built on the CodeIgniter Framework which is a very lightweight but powerful bit of PHP magic; in my day job however I use the Zend Framework.

The site is written using PHP 5 & MySQL and nearly perfect XHTML and CSS.
