Kung Fu

Wait, what’s Kung Fu got to do with website development?

When most people think of Kung Fu, they tend to think of Chinese Buddhist monks, wearing orange, beating the hell out of Ninja’s and/or pirates. But in actual fact the true definition of the term ‘Kung Fu’ has nothing to do with martial arts.

Kung Fu – noun

Expertise in any skill achieved through hard work and practice

This means one can achieve ‘Kung Fu’ in anything, such as playing the guitar, surfing or even website development. Although admitidly that doesn’t sound anywhere near as cool as beating up Ninjas.
