My Blog

2009
10.24

After almost 4 months of some hard core design work, it’s finally done! The blog, powered by WordPress, is integrated with the design (as you can see). The rest of the site is all custom work.

In my new blog, I’ll be posting frequently about software, web applications, new scripts, announcements of new designs and more. You can check out the About Me page to get a better picture of who I am, and my Portfolio to see some of my previous work. The what I do page features a brief summary of, you guessed it, what I do.

I’m very excited about the launch of this website, it will be a great way to maintain client relations and show off my work in one centralized easy to access place.

Some More Features about the Design
Twitter integration – That’s what that blue bird is doing up there at the top of the page. It pulls data right from my twitter, so feel free to follow me!

There’s some really fancy javascript (mostly jQuery) powering this new website, and I would love to show it off. First things first, that main menu you used to get around my website is not flash. It’s a fantastic little script known as MenuSlider. The next thing you’ll notice, is the contact me link on the right of the menu, it’s powered by fancybox. And last but not least, the ajax contact form in the footer of every page, so anyone can easily send me an email! That’s a custom mail script using jQuery for the ajax effects.

Other Scripts Involved:

And to really put this design over the edge, it’s Search Engine Optimized and Cross Browser Compatible with w3c Valid and compressed code. I hope you enjoy using it as much as I did creating it.
