I’m Rob Searles and this is my blog.
Who is Rob Searles?
I’m a web developer and programmer living and working in Berlin. I’ve been in the business of the web since 1998 and after working at a number of different agencies I decided I could do it better so I have set up my own web development agency: ibrow.
At ibrow the central focus is about top quality solutions for our clients, especially from a coding point of view. When we are not doing client work we also like to develop our own little side projects to test new techniques and technologies.
Running a web development agency is pretty time consuming and challenging, but great fun. However, I do occasionally get some free time, and in that free time I try to update this blog as much as possible.
You can find me on Twitter.
What is this blog about?
After many years of denial I can now fully admit that I am a geek at heart. I really enjoy the process of programming and web development. Also, since switching to Ubuntu sompletely about a year ago I am finding more and more that I’m hacking about with Linux.
This blog is a both a scratch pad for my ideas and thoughts on web development and Linux, but also it is a place I can voice my opinions about the state of web development today. It is a tremendously exciting industry to be involved with and I am hoping I can convey that excitement through this blog.
I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it.
