So hey. I think I forgot to tell you guys that I have a bonified, full-time-with-benefits-and-pension-plan-9-to-5-dress-like-an-adult job. I’m the Web Content Specialist at my Alma Mater (almost), Tyndale University College and Seminary. It’s pretty exciting to be creating things on a (nearly) daily basis, with more coming down the stretch in the next few months. In honour of that, despite the fact that I have had the job for two months, I need to update this place.
My friend Dan pointed on his site to this idea called ‘blogazining.’ The idea is that blogs are too standardized and the creativity of the layout is lacking to the extreme. This inspired me to really analyze my own layouts to see if I can go a different direction than I have before. Playing around with code was an idea I had when I started this whole domain-name thing in the first place, so I really need to sit down and think on this.
Have you ever seen the guys at CSS Zen Garden? Talk about some of the prettiest CSS out there.
Well, that’s all I guess – just wanted to fill in people who didn’t know. Drop a line about where I can find some good ideas for designing this place.

One of my favourite web design sites is http://www.webdesignfromscratch.com/ there are a ton of great, practical and theoretical tutorials on best practices for web design. It has been incredibly helpful for me.
