Hello! You can call me Dustin. I'm a very passionate and hard working web designer & developer. I make beautiful websites for people all across the web. Solving problems with design and creativity is not only what I do for fun, but it’s also my career. Constantly learning and always eager to try new things, I’m your guy if you want your website to go to the next level. You should take a look at my past work, or my resume, and get in touch!
This theme is currently a project in motion. If you see any weirdness, or bugs, or anything strange at all, please report it to me. Thanks! :D
Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.- Kurt Vonnegut (via devincastro)

M.I.T. Game-Changer: Free Online Education For All
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (M.I.T.) will announce on Monday that they intend to launch an online learning initiative called M.I.T.x,which will offer the online teaching of M.I.T. courses free of charge to anyone in the world.
The program will not allow students to earn an M.I.T. degree. Instead, those who are able to exhibit a mastery of the subjects taught on the platform will receive an official certificate of completion. The certificate will obviously not carry the weight of a traditional M.I.T. diploma, but it will provide an incentive to finish the online material. According to the New York Times, in order to prevent confusion, the certificate will be a credential bearing the distinct name of a new not-for-profit body that will be created within M.I.T.
The new online platform will look to build upon the decade-long success of the university’s original free online platform, OpenCourseWare (OCW), which has been used by over 100 million students and contains course material for roughly 2,100 classes. The new M.I.T.x online program will not compete with OCW in the number of courses that it offers. However, the program will offer students a greater interactive experience.
Disruptive technologies have overturned music, books, governments, why not education? I hope this to be the beginning of free or reasonable cost educations for everyone everywhere.

New blogs/Magazines to read?
Anyone want to recommend some good design/art blogs to follow on Tumblr? :D I’m also looking for some new magazine subscriptions too. I have a few, but something thats majorly art/design or web development focused would be great. Maybe I’ll finally cave and check out the manual?
