Hi there! I'm Mike Spencer, Web Development Manager at Algonquin Studios in Buffalo, New York. There, I am responsible for managing the web team and projects for all web sites built on our flagship content management solution, QuantumCMS.
For me, being a web developer means more than simply building web sites. As my career has progressed, in addition to improving my core skillsets, I have taken on heightened responsibilities in managing web projects and have become a resource in the areas of usability and accessibility. I have also gained valuable insight in search engine optimization, web strategy, and web traffic analysis.
At the end of the day, my goal is to design and develop elegant, standards-compliant web sites that are effective, easy to use, and make my clients happy.
Adventures in Geekdom is a blog that I write sporadically focusing on Science Fiction and Fantasy (SFF) and other geekery. Enjoy a sample.
