About Me
Hi there, my name is Harry Roberts; and before you ask I most definitely am not the infamous police killer! I am however a freelance front-end developer from West Yorkshire (UK) who specialises in web standards, usability, accessibility and UX (User eXperience)/UI (User Interface).
In business, people deal with people, which is exactly why I've decided to include a more personal overview of myself, as well as my work and services.
Music
I find music a great inspiration. I think it evokes more thought than television does (I don't really watch a lot of T.V.).
I like a mixed bag of music really. A wise man once told me that:
“If you enjoy it, it’s good music. It doesn’t matter what other people think.”A Wise Man
As such, I'm not embarrased to tell you I like a bit of Elton John!
Currently, I'm listening to a lot of R.E.M., some David Bowie, a bit of The Fratellis, some Razorlight, Arctic Monkeys, a lot of Coldplay and a dash of The Streets.
Also, deep in my extensive music collection, you can find a lot of Nas - a lyrical genius, quite a bit of Jay-Z, Big L, The Killers and The Kooks. I love The Who, I've got some Mary J Blige, Kaiser Chiefs and Jaimie T. Newest additions are The Jam, The Kinks and The Rolling Stones. I also have stacks of Ricky Gervais' Podcasts, yet that's never quite enough.
I told you it was a mixed bag...
Film
As I said earlier, I don't watch a massive amount of television. I do however love a good film. And by good, I don't mean run of the mill, ten-a-penny Hollywood churn outs. I mean lesser know classics. Films that stick around, and make you think. Some of my all time favourites are Fight Club, The Crow, Full Metal Jacket and Leon - all of which were introduced to me by Shaun Hanson. All of which are worth a watch, or ten.
About My Work & CSS Wizardry
CSS Wizardry is my online portfolio, my personal space to write whatever I please (almost), and my advert to the world and is accessible to users in almost every situation/circumstance. It is built with validate CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) and xHTML (eXtensible HyperText Markup Language), and has been designed with usability in mind. After all, that is what I do.
I offer high-end front-end development services, designed to bring rich UI (User Interface)s, accessibility, usability and standards compliance to otherwise lifeless sites.
I have an expert working knowledge of web standards, semantics, usability, accessibility, validate CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) and semantic, validate xHTML (eXtensible HyperText Markup Language) among other things.
