I’ve been meaning to improve the readability and look of the site for some time. It’s been 7 months, and the old layout worked pretty well. However, it is time to move. The color is a little different (may see some changes on that) and it’s going to be settling for a while, but I hope you’ll like it. It should be much cleaner and far more readable.

 

In the meantime, please forgive me if it looks like something made by Bloody Stupid Johnson :-)   The layout is good, I just need to get it set.

I’ve made navigation a little easier by moving the navigation link to the previous post to the top of the post, so it’s easier to find. I’ve also recently set up the most popular posts in the sidebar, and included social bookmarking capabilities.

I’ve also been looking at where the site has come from and where it’s going. I started with no real release schedule, just posting when I can. Before long, I went to the “Monday Wednesday Friday” format. I’ve been feeling that going to “Monday through Friday” would provide better structure and make the site more accessible. Therefore as of Monday, that’s the new schedule.

Additionally, I’ve been thinking about how I’ve been presenting. I’ve been trying to keep my personal beliefs and such out in an effort to make the site more open to anyone who happens to drop in. I think that the unintended result is that my posts have been dry and impersonal.
Therefore, I’m going to share more of myself in the posts. In particular, I’m going to have two basic system requirements for most of the techs on this site: The belief or conception that we as humans are
not merely animated bodies, but spiritual beings who inhabit our bodies. Secondly, and stemming from the first one, we each came here with a purpose.

If you have any suggestions or comments on this slight shift in direction and tempo, please leave a comment.

I was making some updates to the site, for readability and accessibility. I have changed the setup so that the blog by default only shows you the most recent post, and I have also made the archives a listed page, and much more usable. If you have any feedback on these changes or any suggestions, please drop me a line or leave a comment. More exciting stuff to come.
