As the writer of some of these blog posts you may have guessed that I am not much of a coder. However, these blogs reflect our entire team, and on our team are some pretty slick code monkeys. They are innovative in a functional way, which I know sounds very German, but it’s not what you may think. Everything you do on the web, on your iPhone, BlackBerry, Palm or whatever, owes its functionality to the art of coding.

It takes a keen mind, one that can visualise how something will work from all angles. Think of it as Mechanical Engineering for the virtual world. Pretty intense stuff right? No need to answer, it is, and it’s the life these folks lead every day. Being in their minds must be like looking at the Matrix’s green code.

So the history and the future of websites, web applications and other software owes a lot to these monkeys and their strange minds the pretty stuff can be done by us designers.

At Brighten we like to think that we innovate when it comes to our work. We provide solutions to any problems our clients bring to us, as well as our own problems with our own projects. Innovation and invention generate improvement. That’s a weighty statement for you to digest.
