"over at"

Hi,

Sometimes I see some people using this combined preposition "over at". For example, "That guy over at EnglishForward.com is asking stupid questions". I think i have only seen it when refering to a website. Can someone elaborate? Is it correct grammar? Because i would only use "at", but i'm not native...

Over here denotes that you are not there when speaking. It can be used for real-life places too, eg. Steven is over at Mike's house.
