A Quick Update

There doesn't seem to be much going on with my site's redesign, right? Well, there's a reason. After completing the preliminary coding for my Website, I decided I wanted to code it in HTML5 and (some) CSS3. That required me to more or less start over. Starting over has also allowed me to make pseudo-significant tweaks to the design.

Anyway, I've made some progress with the new tech and hope to publish an update sooner than later.

Getting Closer

As I mentioned in a previous post, I'm in the midst of updating the design and backend of my Web site. Because of various commitments (work, etc), progress is slow. But there is progress, indeed!

I'm going to try to make a habit out of posting Web site redesign news to my blog as it occurs. Hence, this post.

I've overcome a pretty big hurdle. I've pretty much nailed down the design and I think I've definitely nailed down the general layout. I've started developing the design into a Web site and have most of the XHTML and CSS worked out. If you're interested, you can view my progress here. Right now it's pretty much just the layout. More design elements will be added in the coming days/weeks.

After the design aspect is done, I'll have to decide if I want to use a framework (like Zend) and/or a CMS (like Drupal, or maybe custom). Stay tuned.
