About Me

Hey! My name is Chris. I’m a new web developer who enjoys design work, too. This blog is a playground of sorts to try out new ideas. Currently, I'm in the middle of a design refresh inspired by the early Macintosh software so the code is kinda a mess; but hey, it’s a mess with a direction.

Let’s Connect:

Eventually, I'll have a menu here that shows little widgets—calculator, scratchpad stored in local storage, etc. I'd also like to have options to view categories, tags, posts, videos, etc in a list. Perhaps I can let you save articles you wanna see later, setup custom filters, etc. here as well.

Display Settings

Choose a background pattern. I’ll save your selection in your device’s local cache so it’ll chill until you pick another pattern or clear your cache. Eventually, I'd like to let you set your own custom patterns, choose colors for the site, etc.

Classic or colorized?
