A personal projects site. Everything here is hand-built and run by one person on ordinary shared hosting.
The public ones are Global Finds, a news site covering metal-detecting discoveries around the world, with an editor’s note written for every story; Visual Vitality Photography, fine-art landscape prints; Footie Tables, live league standings; and Phrase & Fable, an etymology research tool.
The rest are working tools rather than publications — records for a geological society, a private finds log, and a set of apps for a faction in the game Torn. Those sit behind a login, so those links will ask you for a password.
