ABOUT

Me

My name is Ched aka Charles Lim. I am based in Montreal, Canada. Currently, I work at Spafax Canada Inc. as Mister Project Coordinator of e-Media. That means that I design and develop websites. Be sure to check out my portfolio before you go, or you can just get my resumé.

To summarize my skills, I tend to lean towards the front-end of things, but I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty in some PHP. Yes, I know Flash, and no, I won’t make you a Flash intro. Oh wait, yeah I will, just ask.

My Blog

I always try be innovative and usable in my web design. This weblog is a testament to that. The concept was the back wall behind the main cash of a Zara store. All wood and stuff, but with rectangles cut into it for shallow shelves.

What started as a straight-up blog became a magazine thing that became a video website, which is easier to maintain.The hardest part was thinking of how to categorize the type of videos I bookmark.

I’ve tried some other CMS (Joomla and Drupal), but for me the great design of the WordPress admin is why I always use it. Almost everything I’ve tried to do, I can do on WordPress; I learned a lot about PHP from it too.

Here are some pics of the previous iterations of this blog.
