Sorry for the lack of posts as of late but I’ve been crazy busy the last few days. I was at an ultimate tourny this past weekend with my Worlds team (we won it all) then I start working crazy hours at the office, I’ve pulled a few 10+ hour days in the past week, heck yesterday was a solid 12 hour day. Which is surprising considering I don’t work with hugely tight timelines. I’m also crazy busy because I’ve been working on a new site design. The main reason I’m doing that is because:
- I have a new digital camera, so I want to add a photoblog element to the site (this will help force me to to take photos)
- I don’t like having crap loads of categories, tags are the way to go
- this site isn’t nearly web 2.0 enough, it’s more like 1.1 (hence the preview image above has gradients, nothing says 2.0 like gradients)
- I seriously needed to update stuff under the hood (eg my feed) so it was a good reason to completely overhaul it
- my projects pages are a mess and I need to do something about them
- this theme is dark, while I like it, I want to brighten it up a bit
- change is good
So keep your eyes peeled, I’m looking go live with the new theme in the next few weeks, prefereably before I head off to Worlds.
