My name is John O’Nolan, and I love the internet. It’s a bumpy relationship to be honest, some days we get on like new-born puppies, other days we shout at each other because we have some sort of misunderstanding, (this mostly happens when Internet Explorer is in use) and we take hours sometimes to work it out.

For the most part though, the internet and I are in love. It provides me with amazing things like social media, google, online shopping, and a never ending supply of RSS feeds. In turn I provide it with more content, more accessible code, more usable design interfaces, and more carefully crafted graphics. Together we both grow for the better.

The thing about me and the internet is that the more we get to know each other, the more we fall in love. I find myself reading books about the internet, or more specifically design, development, usability, web standards, and everything in between. I buy an obscene amount of magazines each month, and I subscribe to over 100 design and development feeds.

Sometimes it feels almost like an addiction, but then I realise that it’s a skill, it’s a career, and I love absorbing every bit of it, improving with each new bit of knowledge and experience.
