Now maybe I will have incentive to update more than once a fortnight!

It’s been a while since I arbitrarily updated the look of this blog. I finished with midterms today, so I figured I deserved a little treat.

Recently, I have wanted to embrace the minimalism of blogging. At some point, blogrolls, RSS links, Tweets, and ever-expanding archives can take their toll on a mind already overloaded with information and stimuli. So, now I have none of these things. It is somewhat liberating.

Anyhow, thanks goes to jamesyps and the Blue Basic WordPress theme from which this design was derived. I guarantee you that the coding behind this Web site will not pass ANY sort of validation, but come on – in this day and age we have browsers to make up for our shortcomings. Also, the nifty icons at the top of this page come from Komodo Media. I have neither the time nor the ability to make anything look that sleek in 256 (16×16) pixels.

I’m sure lots of things still need to be fiddled with, but I am happy enough with what we have to call it a night.

(And to think – lots of my journalism major friends get to do this all the time for class! But they have to use Macs. Poor souls.)
