News/Updates
Version 5 Coming Soon!

Yes, you heard correctly. I am in the works in creating/coding a new layout and design. As you can see from the time of this posting, I have been up working on it; it’s so addicting that I can’t even sleep! I’m hoping to roll out version 5 by the end of this month.
In the mean time, go fancy my new contact form. No more third-party contact form. Yay!
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT: valid xhtml/css, site search, testimonial, more musings (i have two drafts about utilizing social media and looking beyond web design), colophon (because I’m a geek), and more!
Massively Updated Musings
Posted by Magan on 07/06 at 02:14 AM | Categories [Musings] [News]
It’s past 2am, and I can hear the rain drip across the rooftop.
I’ve been working tirelessly on revamping the Musings part of my site since it lagged considerably in function and features. I finally found a good WordPress theme that worked seamlessly into the existing layout (and can easily work with future layouts) without heavy tweaking. While I was at it, I added registration and Twitter updates. Don’t ask me why registration is available; I have no clue, but I just thought it looked cool, and it may come in handy in the future as this site evolves. You can also conveniently tweet while on the Musings section of my site about anything you see or want without going offsite. HOW COOL IS THAT?! I have to test that feature out myself and also watch as the Twitter widget updates itself. I feel like a geek.
An update on the updates…I finally took off all the dead links that ExpressionEngine gave me. I still have no idea why they never worked, but they are kind of useless to me at the moment, anyway. Besides, I don’t want to overwhelm visitors with TOO much interaction what with commenting available on both the portfolio and musings sections, now. Almost 2:30. Time to count some sheep.
Design Crazy

Yes, that’s me! Haha, these past few days, I’ve entrenched myself in a whole lot of design resources and even designed my own business card. It’s simple, but I like it. I’ll just tell y’all here right now…I love simplicity. Now, I need to put my ideas to work.
Regarding these updates, I think I’m just going to remove everything but the content. It’s not like you’d need to search or comment these news/updates, right? If you disagree, let me know.
New Updates via ExpressionEngine

I’ve been adding some cool features to my site to make it more interactive, such as this new way of keeping y’all updated on the home page. In addition, I’ve revamped the portfolio with Plogger integration so that it looks more streamlined. I’m not sure what to do with the musings section, though. I may just leave that be. Any suggestions?
EDIT: I’m having some difficulty with all the links here at ExpressionEngine…eep! For now, the Atom, RSS, Comment, and Trackback links are kind of iffy, unless they are working, and I’m just a total newb. Well, I’m a total newb regardless.
Follow me here, too!
