Redesign
I've been talking redesign of this place for ages, since before the actual design I had made went ker-puffle, and damnit. It's getting to be about that time. Sure, it'll take me ages (far longer than makes any kind of sense), and sure it'll be a horrible horrible process for me (but not a "bad" horrible, just a "repetitive" and "make me want to pull out my hair in frustration when that element is 3 pixels too far to the left in Firefox, 2 pixels to the right in Safari and looks like a lemon pooping a bottle of olive oil in IE. I actually enjoy fixing that stuff. I just go crazy for a while and suddenly, when the black-out is over, everything is happy and shiny again), but it'll be worth it in the end. Why? BECAUSE SELECTING WHICH CATEGORY TO USE IN LITTLE-MISS-MOVABLETYPE (Little Miss Movable Type, please don't think that by my following statements I love you any less, or want to stop making mad blog-love all over you every time I want to ramble on in a public forum) SUCKS HARDER THAN A HOOVER HOOKED INTO A 220 LINE!!!! And yes, the comment selection in a CMS is worth taking a hard, and serious, look at. In fact, it's so serious, I'm looking at moving my site off Movable Type. Which is all kinds of crazy because I've been using it for over four years now. I started using it pre-2.0, and I love it. Except I hate it. And now with comments all sorts of bassackward, it's time to look long and hard at a few alternatives.
That being said. The redesign is right on schedule right now for a third quarter 2010 release. I'll keep you posted.
