That's all the 'about' you're getting for now

Well, ok if you insist on wanting to know more...!

Yes I'm Chris - a twenty-something male living in West Wales although originally from Reading, Berkshire.

Over the years I've had a few dabblings on the web with my first ever websites being created in about 1998 and, being honest, it was shit.

We all know those n00b sites - bright colours, clipart etc. with the odd dash of embedded MIDI files. Yuk.

Thankfully I grew up and after producing a few public sites over the years, I'm currently responsible for three: this site, Grazeley Village Hall and Aberystwyth Guild of Students' Shop.

If you're really interested, I use PivotX as the back-end for this site and that of GVH. Here's a bit about PivotX from its developers...

PivotX is a feature rich weblogging tool that is simple enough for the novice weblogger to use and complex enough to meet the demands of advanced webmasters. It can be used to publish a variety of websites from the most basic weblog to very advanced CMS style solutions.

PivotX is - if we do say so ourselves - quite an impressive piece of software. It is made even better through the use of several external libraries. We thank their authors for the time taken to develop these very useful tools and for making them available to others.

Development of PivotX (originally Pivot) started back in 2001 and has continuously forged ahead thanks to the efforts of a lot of dedicated and very talented people. The PivotX core team is still very active but keep in mind that PivotX would not be what it is today without the valuable contributions made by several other people.
