Reading…

I really need to remember to keep better track of what I read. I read such an immense number of books, and a few months later I’d be hard-pressed to tell you what I read at all. The plots all run together, the authors are interchangeable, and it all fades into so much mist in the past.

Not that I need a book blog, mind you. Oh, no - no ubiquitous blooking for me. Maybe just a category.

New look

I’ve gotten tired of messing around with it, so I’ve launched the new design for this site even though I don’t consider it really done yet. There are still some niggling differences in the page templates that I’m working out on the back end. I also want to finish implementing the URL rewriting so that the URLs are friendlier.

The thing that’s bugging me the most right now is the color scheme - I’m thinking that this color scheme is still a little bit too dark. I think that the text is a touch too hard to read, unless I use the lighter color for all of the text and not just the headings. That’s not the look I’m going for, though.

I’ll have to play with this a little more, so you’ll have to suffer until I get it straighted away.

Modulator

Working on the last half-dozen or sites I’ve built, I’ve rediscovered how much modularizing the code helps me in the long term. Updating the site and building out each new section as the site grows is so much easier when I can copy an existing file and just change the names of the includes to the new section.

Why did I stop using include files again??
