site update

Posted on November 19th, 2002 in site news

meaning_building gets an update…

after some real frustration with the current state of graphic design (esp. on the web), I’ve settled down a bit and managed a redesign of my site—partly inspired (mostly inspired?) by kaz’s vision for manyfold, partly inspired by my impending doom as an ex-graduate student. temporarily exiled from the academy, one feels compelled to present oneself to the world in the most attractive way that one can. ha!

so, the blog. hmmm. a friend said that she thought the blog was cool because it allows friends and family far and wide to check up on you periodically. and speaking of “periodical”, kaz discovered that you can apply for an ISSN number for your weblog, thus placing it in the worldwide standardized encyclopedia of periodicals. we’ll see about that… (get your own free blog from blogger) I’m not very familiar with the subculture which centers around the practice of “blogging”—in fact, I don’t think I would read a blog that wasn’t written by a friend. that said, dear reader, if you are not a friend, thanks for you interest and time; and, by the way, don’t you have something better to do?

like I said, I’m just a few weeks away from graduating and I expect to have quite a lot of free time ahead of me. many projects to be undertaken, many ideas to investigate and then share via this particular medium. I hope to soon develop my thesis work into some form of web-based resource and on-going research project (that thesis work has only just begun), etc etc…

Yes, I am on Facebook. I post photos to Flickr and links to Delicious too. Twitter is boring.
