WEBCRAFT is my personal “web studio”, its primary function is producing simple but purposeful websites for people/orgs who appreciate a particular kind of tasteful minimalism.

This site – joodaloop.com – is my primary home on the web. It acts as an eternal notepad, a “personality gallery”, and an consolidation of my presence on the WWW. Check out the Colophon page for technical details.

September, 2025

You’re looking at version 4.5 of this site. It included a redesign of the Writing page, a new kind of format (chats), and some less noticeable refinements. See the changelog for other recent changes.

The last project I launched was v0.5 of Scatterpad. The last client project I completed was the Commoncog Case Library, and the most recent free site I made was for Jean.

Lately, my days are spent almost completely buried in my design practice and product work – interspersed with bursts of tweeting, drum practice and the occasional lifting/sprinting session.
