About
Hi. My name is Martin Redfern. I’m a journalist and web developer interested in the social and economic application of information resources across distributed networks.
This website is an attempt to filter out the hype surrounding online social media in order to relay clear signals without all that distorting noise, as well as a record of my musings on matters such as open standards, data portability and web accessibility.
It is also a repository of anything relevant and interesting I find during my travels in hyperspace, including synopses of significant developments as well as enabling links to external resources for those who wish to dig deeper.
Expect to find interoperability discussed alongside intellectual property rights, crowdsourced news aggregation compared with search engine optimisation and collaborative content production methods butting up against intermediating paywalls.
The sidebar includes links to my online networks, where you can follow me on twitter, discover my bookmarks on delicious, browse my photostream on flickr, subscribe to my activity stream on friendfeed, or listen to my music library on last.fm.
If you would like help with an online project of your own, you can commission my web strategy, design and development services at redfernwebdesign.com. Otherwise please simply get in touch to find out more.
