A brief word about the site’s new appearance. It’s interesting – basically since I started blogging I’ve done a somewhat regular redesign of the site which among other things let me exercise my technical skills, but this time around, partly due to a lack of familiarity with WordPress and partly due to the change in focus of my day to day job (I’m much more of a sys admin these days and much less of an html geek), I’m going to use someone else’s templates, at least for a while. The one you’re looking at is not the one I will neccesarily stick with though, sometime over the next couple of days I’ll post links to the ones I am considering and let you all decide. Maybe by xmas I’ll get around to building out my own templates again, I’ve got a few things in mind but no time to puzzle out WordPress’s structure so that I can do it on my own. Yet.
