The Why
of Some of
the What

Why is it that so many Internet-related companies treat you as if you have no choices? Simple changes can take weeks to implement. With more complex issues it can be frustrating and bewildering trying to get anything done on your website.

You do have a choice.

My Promise to You

I am not about money. I only charge for my services because, like you, I have to eat.

I keep my word. The trust of my clients is my most valuable asset. Just ask them.

I will never push or pitch. I would rather lose a sale than sell you something you don’t need.

I want your success more than your money. I would rather give you free advice than see you make mistakes you can’t afford.

I have 50 years of experience with computers and 30 years of experience designing websites. When I work for you, I will get it right.

You have my word.

So what's this all about, this owl?

In literature, the owl has always been the wise old bird (except in Winnie the Pooh, where he's the Dunning-Kruger poster bird.) I've reached the age where I can compare myself to that wise old bird and get away with it.

It also works out nicely that the name I chose 22 years ago, spinhead (I never capitalized it when it was just my screen name) can apply to a bird who can turn his head more than 180º.

Fonts

I have long loved the Josefin family from all the free fonts Google makes available. I'm using Josefin Sans for the body text and Josefin Slab for headings. I love the nearly circular openings, the lower x-height (which tradition says makes it less readable, but I think otherwise) and the sturdy uprightness and geometric certainty.
