After two years I finally have a website again. I can’t believe the last time I updated my website was January 2007. A lot has happened in two years, I’ll try to summarize quickly

We stopped the day to day operations of Thirdcircle, I got a job at Organic, 8 months later I got a new job at teehan+lax, I’ve moved, I’ve bought a new car, I’ve gotten engaged. In terms of projects: CampusCentral.com has been neglected and leads a lonely life, VioletValley.com has closed and is no longer taking orders, Soapbox has been abandoned for a number of reasons, and Cirqa Host is shutting down soon. While the news about all my past projects may seem bleak, I assure you there are new projects on the horizon to look forward to.

So what’s the new website all about? Well it’s been redesigned and rebuilt from the ground up. The site is no longer running on Soapbox, instead I’ve opted to go with the extremely powerful and extremely flexible Expression Engine. This is the first time I’ve built my website without also building the backend for it. I’ve learned my lesson, just because you can build the backend to your blog, doesn’t mean that you should. Hopefully with a proper blog engine powering the website I’ll be able to maintain it properly and update it regularly.

What can you expect to see here? I’ll be writing about web development, design, photography, gadgets and geekery, my projects, and random things I come across on my daily dive into the internet. I’ll also be writing about some pretty major events that are going to unfold in the next year of my life. I’ll be getting married next June, and we’ll hopefully be buying a house shortly after, both of which will make for an exciting, not to mention very expensive year ahead.
