Hi, my name is Philip Walton. I'm an engineer at Google working on Chrome and the Web Platform. I've been working on the web professionally since 2006, and unprofessionally since 1998 when I made my first website.

This blog is a place where I can explore new ideas, experiment with different techniques, and muse on best practices. If you're interested in my thoughts on something, please let me know!
