Thord Daniel Hedengren’s Summary
I've been running online publications professionally since 1996, mostly in Swedish aimed at the Swedish market. However, as I sold off my biggest brands and projects in early 2007 I completed the move to the international market, focusing on new media and the blogosphere in particular.
I'm a designer, writer, blogger and experienced web publisher. I intend to evolve these skills and launch 3-5 successful projects before the end of 2008, as well as continue to work with my clients.
