MySpace is still home for Latino/Hispanic teens, immigrant teens, "burnouts," "alternative kids," "art fags," punks, emos, goths, gangstas, queer kids, and other kids who didn't play into the dominant high school popularity paradigm. These are kids whose parents didn't go to college, who are expected to get a job when they finish high school. These are the teens who plan to go into the military immediately after schools. Teens who are really into music or in a band are also on MySpace. MySpace has most of the kids who are socially ostracized at school because they are geeks, freaks, or queers.

The world doesn't need another blog - of that I'm sure. But in my defense, I feel like I'll be providing something useful - and not just opinions about my day.
My name is Pete, and I'm a Digital Graphic Designer working in Central London. Although I am not a developer, I feel that concept and designs of all web designers can be greatly improved by having a thorough and up to date knowledge of the internet and media. That's why I wanted to create this resource, and an ideal to which I will try and stick to;
I will post relevant and important information that will help people (who are not necessarily web developers) to design more functional and modern websites.
