About
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, 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.
