The mini is awesome. No words for it. I want to thank those of you who commented on my post requesting recommendations (and you—slightly taking over my Dock with the awesome iconry) and thanks also go to Will, awesome person and employer of sorts. I have been keeping myself rather busy with work and school, and it keeps on going. Various personal projects went on holiday to more restful part of my brain, and they’re likely to stay away for another while. What I will do now, in lieu of doing cool shit, is post a bit about stuff I noticed. Yes, back to the blog basics!
Web 2.0, as “they” like to call it, is booming. The first Ajax Summit is just over and I have to say that I’m impressed. I followed it a bit on Ajaxian and it’s very inspiring.
New designs came like mad, mostly due to a certain reboot the other day. When I get the time (not likely to be soon), I will redesign, or at least restyle a bit. I have the logo now, and I think it works. Andy did a great job and made me realise that my work once again stinks. I really need the time for it, and like I said, it won’t occur soon. But don’t be surprised when it pops up.
I have been reading more than ever. It’s mighty interesting to read the Slashdot interview with Jeffrey Zeldman, almost five years old. The points he made are still true, though our scope has moved a lot. Still worth a (re)read. I’m also totally digging the stories people tend to blather nowadays on their sites, and they keep me going. I shall have to try and promise that my next big post will be one of substance, so what to expect? Exactly, the obvious ones: design, markup and style, semantics, usability, UI, IA and other web pro curmudgeonry ;)
