Hayo Bethlehem
About
I'm a 30 year old guy from the Netherlands. I live in the center of The Hague.
You can ask me anything about digital media, photography, shooting video, media strategies, the pros and cons of XHTML versus HTML, User-friendly webdesign, Photoshop, Geek culture, business culture and politics. I like to keep busy doing many different projects, though not necessarily all at once. You could say I'm well rounded, but in reality I'm quite skinny.
Competences
My primary skill is webdesign and webstandards based XHTML/CSS writing. Besides that I have competences in videomaking, d-slr photography, communication advice, internet strategy, social media and webmanagement.
The website
This website has been on the great intertubes since 1996. It started out as a plaything on a server of the Economics faculty of the University of Amsterdam. Currently you're looking at revision 13 of the design. We've come a long way.
In its long life it has been a simple HTML2.0 site and a flash presentation. It once had a style switcher, and has been plain HTML until 2002. That's when the news system was first introduced. In 2004 it went the way of XHTML 1.1. Applications like the photoalbums were added, and some applications quickly died. Like the linklog and the blogroll. I like to keep development organic.
