About Martin
Geek Talk |
Some might wonder how I manage to make ends meet with two kids on a Quaker salary and all this blog work. Well, the truth is that I don't. Not quite. Even with pennies pinched the supermarket run is always a struggle. One way I make up the difference is with freelance web work. As of today it now has its own website at martinkelley.com.
In the past few months I've put together Quakersong.org for Peter Blood and Annie Patterson of Rise Up Singing fame, two lovely folks I know from Quaker & activist circles and most recently through their membership at Middletown Meeting (their site has a great Pete Seeger section!). I've also put together a customized blog for journalist James Maguire who liked the design of Nonviolence.org and asked me to put together his site. My latest FGC design is the brand new Youth Ministries site, Quakeryouth.org, which is our most ambitious & interactive yet!
Since coming back from the Gathering I've spent most of my free time ignoring the latest blogger bruhaha to put together Martinkelley.com. There's lots there about my design philosophy and my experiences with online communities (social and commercial). There's also a few silly features: Little Known Facts of outrageous claims. Check it all out and tell your friends and business associates!
New, 8/2/06:
I've added a web design blog, a place to talk design philosophy. How do we use the internet to build a community or a movement? What would a Quaker design aethetic for the internet look like? Sign up or surf over to martinkelley.com/blog.

This is a bit overdue, don't you think? :) Good luck with this venture. I hope it brings you lots of support so you can your ministry work!
Glad to see that a full-time position at FGC hasn't drained your creative juices. And now I know why some of us newer bloggers haven't seen you commenting on our posts!
I will keep you in mind for any webpage development that I might hear others are looking for.
