Walkabout

I am an Australian stranded in London. I am a designer and information architect, and until recently I did consulting work for yuku.

I set up my own design company in 2001 when I was pregnant with my first child. Read that as "I work for myself".

I started consulting for ezboard when I was 8 months gone and had tidied away my clients and was bored out of my mind. I helped "Nutrocker" manage the cool tips & tricks forum for quite a while, and then worked on the bugs forum.

When yuku went into alpha, I moved over to the development team and began writing up specs for the new product, helping with html and design and discussing features with alpha participants.

I've really enjoyed working with yuku - both the staff and members - and loved seeing some of my work come to life in the product. It's time now to move on however, as I have a full workload in my own company.

I'll still be around yuku as an ordinary member however, so please feel from to drop me a PM if you want to chat.

And don't forget - you can get design and skin help at skins any time!

Hi SciFiGuy Copyright applies to any expressible form of an idea or information that is substantive and discrete and fixed in a medium. Source:

  3. blogging... take 3

    yuku have started a company blog for the third time. Depending on your local customs, three is either a charm, or bad things happen in threes! So only time will tell if this blog will be interesting, regularly updated, relevant and/or honest. yuku's previous blog, and the one on ezboard both suffered from a serious lack of content. Due to a policy of not revealing what is going on behind the scenes, neither of them could muster up anything that even passingly masqueraded as an...
