• Tunbridge Wells Winter Shelter is a website I made to assist a local charity initiative to get homeless people off the streets during the UK's coldest months. It gave me a chance to put 8 tips to design a charity website into action and hopefully help an important scheme get the attention and help it deserves.

• pure css coverflow was a hack that demonstrates how you can do a coverflow without any javascript and just lots of advanced CSS! This technique could be used to make presentations and to provide an easy way to navigate through large documents.

• backpackrin is my first full blown website built in Django. Guidebooks in my opinion provide too much, irrelevant and out of date information and take up valuable luggage space in your backpack. Projects such as wikitravel are not perfect for backpackers as they cater for a wider audience and as a result contain information that most of the time is not relevant such as expensive hotels, expensive restaurants. Tripadvisor is also not perfect as you get recommendations from backpackers, romantic couples, couples with families and there's no way to turn off the noise! My vision is that the next generation of guidebooks will contain personalised recommendation from users you subscribe to. Your feedback is valued.
• riot map vs deprived areas was a simple mashup using government and crowdsourced data to link deprived areas to riots in London during August 2011. It took less than an hour to build and most of that was writing. It even got me a BBC Radio 4 interview.

• My first website for an artist was for Caroline Spinette. She's a great artist based in Tunbridge Wells Kent. Check her out!
• Notes music coffee is probably one of the best if not the best cafe in London. Their website didn't reflect this - it was just an image straight out of photoshop. Jon Robson did his best to turn it into html and this is the result.
• Use the online version or download the offline version of the carbon calculator - a tool for calculating carbon footprints for meetings.

  Although Jon can't take the credit for the lovely web design of sweet spot Jon can put his name to the hidden gimmick that kicks in when you click on the spinning top in the logo. This was done using an svg graphic for the spinning top and some javascript to animate it. It only works on browsers that support it.
• jqGeoSearch is a jQuery plugin for performing geo lookups. It takes a place name and turns it into longitude and latitude coordinates with a slight bit of configuration (may need a proxy server).
