A Weblog written, styled and hacked by Joel Moss
The reason why I love the internet soooo much, and why I spend so much time working and playing online is exactly why this blog was created. It’s all about those moments when I find a site or online service/software, that simply blows me away with it’s genius, and proves everything about what is so great about this thing we like to call the world wide web.
A few days ago, I found another one of those Discovered Genius’, and wrote a quick Twitter post on it. A few moments later, I wrote another, using that Discovered Genius that I had just found. And thus, a new blog was born at DiscoveredGenius.com.
I downloaded the latest copy of Wordpress, installed it on my Mac, then proceeded to create a theme and add my favourite plugins. I uploaded it to my server, and began to write the first post.
So…
The idea is simple; every time I discover any sort of Genius that is in any way or form related to the Internet, or indeed, anything at all, I will write about here. It not only means I have a quick and easy way to keep tabs on the best stuff that I discover, but it lets me share it all with you, my dear reader.
The first Discovered Genius has already arrived, so head on over there. If you discover any that I may have missed, or simply overlooked, please drop me a line at joel [at] discoveredgenius [dot] com. I’m all ears!
And let me know your thoughts.
My name is Joel Moss, a web developer and all round nice guy, living in Manchester, England. I am currently working full time for ShermansTravel.com, but I fill whatever spare time I have with lots of good and wholesome "stuff"! Like developing my own ideas; such as Tooum, contributing to the excellent CakePHP framework, and doing more work for ShermansTravel.
So this is my blog - my soap box! Here I attempt to share my likes, my dislikes, and my opinions. As well as providing some occasional respite from the daily crap we all endure. Enjoy ;)
