About this blog

So what’s it about?

If you’ve read the about me section, then you won’t be too surprised to find out this blog’s about startups, web design, web tech and so forth… because basically that’s what I do an awful lot of. But also, having only been in the web world for 14 16 months, I really know sweet FA about the industry and have a lot to learn.

So, after much though this blog is about three things:

  • My rants/opinions about stuff I see on the internet
  • Tips I’ve picked up along the way to make your web life a little bit easier
  • Me learning loads from the people I meet and the stuff I read

What’s with the freaky design?

I don’t know. I went through a million different design iterations. All I knew is that it had to feature a background consisting of a scan of my favourite Marks and Spencer shirt. From there I just kept changing it off-and-on over the period of a month. Only took me a day to code and cut out the pictures though, which is a bit more respectable.

As a side-note, I suppose the psychologist reader could interpret much from the worn denim in the titleblock (just like my jeans!)… the dark colors mixed with the bright… the irregular shape to the post entries… the alternating geometry…

It looks a bit unfinished, where’s {INSERT BLOG FEATURE HERE}?

It IS unfinished. I can’t decide where to put the dates and a few other things. I’ll add them eventually, I just don’t know where and to what design. Probably floating left in an orange font, or perhaps as a background graphic. Dunno. Suggestions?

Can I steal content from the site?

Only the words, and not the design. Anything you do take must be attributed to back to me.
