I had the same web site layout for the last 4 1/2 years, and I had become mightily tired of it. Designing from scratch comes hard for me, so the effort of actually building the pages just wore me out, and even after all that effort I wasn't very excited with the results. But recently I discovered the magic of free template web sites. This has freed up my creative process for site-building and taught me quite a lot about how to use CSS in a structured way. This is one such site, my resume site is another.

This site is under development.

I'm even developing a style – clean and quick to refresh – Information First!. Kinda like Google with production values. No images or javascript gee-gaws unless they serve a purpose.

What's going on here? I am studying interconnectedness. I have a variety of stuff to present - galleries, maps, stories, techie stuff, blog stuff, probably movies, and it interconnects in many ways, so how to present it?

The goal is to develop a compelling enough content presentation technique.

 
Thank you!
