Top Secret Project

After 10 years with this domain, which I originally started to manage the  Information Architecture list I ran (which had a whole bunch of traffic at one stage) it’s time to move on.

So this is the end.

And a new beginning.

And funnily, there is not much difference between the two:

Top Secret Project now lives at:

Is all I think about

An independent code audit and review can help ensure your project is on track by providing an independent and expert view of development progress.

If your code is complete, an audit can ensure that your product is rock-solid and production ready.

Factors to consider:

• Application Security
• Scalability & Performance
• Code Conventions
• Code Quality
• Test Coverage
• Data Privacy
• User Interaction
• Information Architecture

Contact me for more information.

I can offer over 10 years of commercial experience in web application development.

I’ve worked with a range of technologies, and many different clients from small business to big business and government.

I am committed to the user-experience and in creating elegant, sophisticated interfaces.

I am available for Project work.
