What is this place?
Polytechnic is the online home of Garrett Coakley.
It tends to focus on such geekery as web development, technology, music, film, and photography.

Garrett Coakley
I’ve been involved in web development since the early 1990s. Like many peers of a similar vintage, I fell into it more by luck than judgement after some friends asked me if I knew anything about “this web thing”.
Since those humble beginnings I’ve worked in most sectors of the industry including programming, project management and user interface development, with a recent focus on community management and user experience.
I currently work for Torchbox as part of the Drupal team on projects for non-profit and charitable clients.
When I’m not playing guitar, I listen to a hell of a lot of music and attempt to take photographs with a DSLR and a range of very old film cameras. I stand 5′ 9″ in my socks and have an affinity for Guinness.
I don’t look anything like Zebedee in real life, just in case you were wondering.
