Karen Templer

I am a long-time web designer, developer and consultant; creator and editor of Readerville.com (2000-2009) and The Readerville Journal as well as companion service Note:books (now operating as Noting:books, with a new look under new management). Clients have included Evite.com, MotherJones.com, InfoWorld, numerous authors and other entities large and small. I have also produced and/or written a number of books, mainly on the subjects of food and interiors — details at right.

I am currently on staff at Salon.com (for the second time) as VP of product management.
