About This Site
Sprung full-formed from the head of Zeus Kyle Weems after an overly adventurous night involving sketchy sushi, a snowstorm, homeless ninja and an irish pub during the Web Directions North 2008 conference, CSSquirrel is a webcomic (and blog) about web design (or web development, pick your poison).
About Kyle Weems
Robbed of the title ‘firstborn’ by the birth of his brother a mere nineteen minutes earlier, Kyle Weems had to rely on cheap laughs to get through school when his plans of being ‘heroic’ were brought low by the realization in the first grade that his voice was too high-pitched to be properly recorded for his role of Robin Hood (in the play of the same name).
Although his voice has suitably deepened since (watch out ladies), he’s maintained that his failure to be taken seriously by his peers was intentional. After his bid to take over the world stalled from inadequate funding (the same issue that also tanked his participation in a cable station startup), and his various pizza-related stints failed to convince him that his future was in food preparation, Kyle begged his way into the world of web design via Mindfly, a Bellingham, WA, design studio.
After learning tables were bad, bad things, Kyle has embraced the worlds of CSS and web standards, and has proceeded to make an annoyance of himself by spouting off his opinions on the subject. In addition to his posts at CSSquirrel, Kyle frequently contributes to Mindfly’s web design blog.
