ThatGuy Ontheweb is the brainchild and identity concept of Me, Tom Gormley (tg), based in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. I have lived in DFW since the early 1990s, except for a wonderful period of time in Lubbock, Texas attending Texas Tech University.
I consider myself a web publisher, which you may not have heard of before today. In the web creation world, there exists two types of website creators: designers and developers.
