Some one was kind enough to let me know my comments weren’t working – apparently changing some plugins broke them, but they should be fully functioning now. Submit one as a test to make sure, but I think we’re firing on all cylinders again!

And so is my site. Don’t try to use the contact form in the footer yet, it won’t get you anywhere. The contact form should work now! I’m using some CSS3 and HTML5, and WordPress (still), and jQuery (still), and the 960 Grid System. I have also drastically simplified the site, and cut out a lot of garbage. Most of the garbage is still available if you dig around, it’s just not blasted in your face like it was before. I got tired of all the nonsense I see all over so many sites, I really wanted to let content be the focus of the new design. Additionally I decided that font-replacement JavaScript is trash, so I’m using the @font-face technique. And I have completely abandoned trying to make the site look the same in all browsers. I have a script that should do some magic if you’re running an older version of IE (but I’m not checking what it actually does), the site is really designed for Chrome or Firefox (I’m guessing Safari looks similar to Chrome.)
BTW, if you want to “social bookmark” anything, you know how to do it, I’m not putting 497 icons all over the place to do it for you.
I like the new design, I was looking for something more “serious” feeling (maybe an effect of the 73 feet of snow we got this winter?)
Also left to do is to make some sense of a mobile version of the site. I haven’t looked at it on a mobile browser yet, but I’m guessing it could use some help.
I hope you enjoy the new site!

I’m trying to build a network. A group of people I like to follow online. People I trust and respect. People I would want to work with one day. I want to have meaningful dialog with people, across lots of web sites. I read some ungodly number of blogs daily. I contribute via the comments when I think I can help. And now that’s frustrating me. Keep reading…
