The spiders are slacking off

I was informed (Thanks, Dave) that Googling my name continues to bring up links to my old website. Links which do not exist anymore. So instead of waiting around for the spiders (or wallowing in my sudden existential dread), i installed a dummy home.html page with some redirect code. Awesome :D

(I can see my posts becoming less substantial and more frequent, but this does not trouble me).

All done!

The site’s done. I will tweak no more. The header image took some time to get right.. but i think i’m happy with it. The Projects section is also almost complete.. with new content (including video) added to the NEWTONIAN DROP and BOOTY BANDIT pages. The highly anticipated LAST RITES trailer is up too. The documentary is still to come.. but with school starting up again (and with that, the Industry Project i’m working on) that might be a while..


UPDATE (Mar 16 ‘09): LAST RITES docu added.

Testing… 1st post!!!

Holy Crap We’re Live!!!! :D

For my new and revamped portfolio site, i wanted something a little more exciting and extensible than a series of static web pages. I fiddled with blogger for a while.. tried to find a template i liked, and changed it around a bit, but having limited coding ability, adding content to anything other than a blog-post structure was going to be difficult. I needed a bit more freedom.

Thankfully, a good pal , Seth Marinello reminded me that my esteemed webhost has a set of awesome one-click application installs, one of which is wordpress!

So, i spent the better part of two days tweaking the hell out of the simpleX template until it was something i was reasonably satisfied with. Two other buddies, Jason Chang and David Marhal, helped me with navigating the css code. Firebug FTW! :D
