On the 19th of May, I gave a talk at Carsonified’s Future of Web Design London on Freelancing. I’ve just been sent the video of my talk if you missed it. – Video no longer available. :(

I’ll be posting a write-up of the talk on either my blog or Scrunchup, so keep an eye on my RSS or Twitter feed.
