Hello, my name is Jordan Newland, I am the chief editor and CEO of The New Web Times. I have worked in the web industry for the past 8 years working on both front and back end projects ranging from client websites to huge scale web applications. My specialities are HTML5, CSS, ES6 JavaScript, React for the front end and Node.js, GoLang, GraphQL and Postgres on the back end.
I decided to start The New Web Times as a side project during what little spare time I have and after what can only be described as a massive success over the past few months it has now become my full time employment which I look forward to every single day.
During my spare time, that thing I have very little of I like to play tennis, visit the cinema, listen to music at home or at the club and read about new technologies and other subjects such as cryptography, politics, transportation and space exploration.
