I have been producing web content for over ten years. Meanwhile, the Internet has taken huge steps forward. It was about time I published my own dynamic website. The site contains things that inspire me. For instance, there is a changing picture and a thought of the day on the index page and much of my previously developed web content can be found in the archive. The regional E-Girls project of Vaasa enabled this website for me.

The Internet has gone through a lot of progress in ten years. It was about ten years ago that I was creating web content about electric networks. It was called Sähköverkko-opus (A guide to electric networks). It was certainly possible to add pictures and text at that time as well, but still it was nothing compared to the situation today.
We can now watch TV on the Internet. If we forget to watch the news we can watch the same broadcast on our computer. We can make telephone calls for free and we can check the weather by looking at real time pictures of different places in Finland before we set out for a trip. The progress has been huge.
Even 10 years ago some people had their own homepages. We still get the same kind of homepages: a picture of oneself with contact information and a short description of one’s activities. This is probably the most common type of homepage. However, the Internet of today offers all kinds of opportunities. Updating the content is much easier now, and you can write your blog, etc.
Inspired by this huge progress I decided to make this website. It was exciting to come up with ideas for the content. Also, I wanted to create a place where it is easy to find all the virtual content I have been developing over the years. There is also an archive for old and outdated content. This website was enabled by the regional E-Girls project of Vaasa, funded byEuropean Social Fund (ESF) and the State Provincial Office of Southern Finland.
With the opening of my new website, I’m starting my blog. I have not set any goals for my blog except that I will write whenever interesting themes come across.
Welcome to my website and my blog!
