Earth from Mars, puts things in a different perspective... puts things in perspective full stop.Not so the load of tosh that is Big Brother 3 Australia (no, I'm not linking it). Oh, the excitement...

Anyone halfway familiar with the web design scene will know Jade Palmer. I first became acquainted with Jade way back in 1999, when he was starting out as a web designer, and ran a cool little site called Sweeper.He was very determined to start a career in web design, despite having a completely unrelated career background (sounds familiar), in social work, to be precise.
