Site Launch
Welcome to the new site. I hope you like it. It is now a bit more robust in talking about my work life and I have basically turned it into a long form of my résumé. I had a very difficult time writing the new content, but the design was an absolute blast. Hopefully, it will entertain you enough that you won't have noticed my lack of recent blog updates on the old site.
The reason for the redesign was a desire to get off of my old CMS (Drupal), and move onto a Django based site. It was also a fun opportunity to push some of my front end design and development capabilities like using animation and AJAX based deep linking to create a smoother and faster Web viewing experience.
In the near term I will write a technical post about all of the technology and design methods I used. There were a whole host of interesting bugs and quirks I had to work around to get both the content and URLs migrated from the old site in addition to all of the wonderful problems I've had to work around using AJAX and animation. For example here is one of the most entertaining software bugs I've ever run into:
Let me know what you think about the site in the comments. Love it, hate it I'd love to get some feedback.
