Goodbye Blue and White (and Red)
April 3rd, 2008 at 19:27
If you’re a regular visitor, you’ll probably have noticed that things look a little different. I got bored of the red and blue layout, so wrote myself a lovely new green blue, yellow and black one. If you’re reading via RSS, now would probably be a good time to click “view original”, so you can understand what I’m talking about”.
Needless to say, getting it working has been no end of hassle – I am working with computers after all. But I’m quite pleased with the results.
There’s some exciting new features – recent comments are linked to on the left hand sidebar, and perhaps most excitingly, the latest 24 hours of my Twitter feed. That’s right – if you just can’t get enough of me, you can follow the tedious minutiae of my life in near real time. Or at least, you will when I get it working.
I’ve got some other plans for further enhancements that I’ll implement in due course. Its amazing how motivated you become to code stuff when you’ve got a more important, ten thousand word dissertation that you should be doing instead.
So, what do you think? Post comments with suggestions/criticisms/etc below – it’ll help me check that comments are still working at least.
Update: Focus groups don’t like the colours. So I’ve gone for a more conservative blue. That’s small “c” conservative. Big “C” Conservatives are more green and deceitful these days.
