Hi Everyone,
My name is Mariya - yet another Googler from the Search Quality Team
happy to join the discussion on webmastering here. My own web
experience goes back to the late 90s when frames and animated gifs
were all the rage and I cut my teeth making fan sites for my favourite
bands on GeoCities. Since then, I've had the opportunity to work on a
number of more serious and complex projects for large corporate
sites.
I am originally from Bulgaria - a land famous for roses, yoghurt,
football (misnamed stateside as soccer (-: ), and recently, sumo
wrestlers. Outside of Google, I enjoy sports, such as Wikipedia
surfing and football watching, and on the more active side, mountain
hiking and volleyball. I have a linguistics background, and grammar
books are right at the top of my reading list with novels and blogs. I
love learning new languages and I speak a few, so you may see me
chatting with webmasters in the German or Russian groups, for
instance.
I am really excited to be part of the group and look forward to
learning a lot and hopefully adding to the helpful voices in an
already lively discussion.
Talk to you soon~
Mariya
