My name is Thomas Arie Setiawan. Some friends call me Thomas. I am a self-employed web designer and blogger and currently live in Jogjakarta Jakarta, Indonesia. You are now reading my personal journal (blog).

About weblogs, I am a blog addict, trust me about this. ;) I like CSS, HTML and blog very much. I learn all those topics by reading, making some simple experiment on my site, hacking blogging platform templates, etc. I try to follow the technology. And blog is an interesting topic, right? I have a small design studio together with some friends. If you need some blog design work, you can go to Orangescale Studio.

Right now (started on February 2010), I work for The Daily Media, a small company I built with some friends.

Online Activities

• Orangescale Studio — my web design service as an independent web designer and blogger.
