Welcome to The Workshop! I’m Amelia Ryan, the chief cook and bottle washer at Marginal Media, and I plan for this blog to be a record of my various travels through the wild and wooly worlds of design and development on the Web. Okay, maybe ‘wild and wooly’ is a bit of an exaggeration, but hey, I amuse easily.
Hopefully this will turn into a useful repository of resources, and also serve as a testing ground for trying out new tools and toys. Areas of interest include (in no particular order): graphic design, information design, XHTML, Ruby on Rails, CSS, javascript, Ajax, Ruby on Rails, e-commerce, open source, Linux, Apple’s OS X and mobile platforms, Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, Acrobat) goodies, digital photography, digital video (editing and production), print design, color theory, typography, and social media.
Haha, it looks like a lot listed out like that, but once you start down this road, one thing does tend to lead to another—especially if you’re an insatiable tinkerer. Anyway, that’s enough blather about purpose… I need to go monkey around with this default template.
