Alexandar Tzanov ~ The Titan

I did some layout changes to DomainRecord.Info tonight. Read more about them on the DomainRecord.Info project blog on the Innovadix web site.

I am working on a new project with my brother and his publishing company. One of my tasks is to set up a new site for his company. One thing I am really, and I mean really, good is modifying things. Be they digital or physical, I can take something and turn it into something else.
