Drive-by geekery a la navel gazing
Thursday, July 17th, 2008
When one sits down to design a blog — any website, really — they’re trying to put a feeling on screen.
I keep going back and forth about how I want this blog to look, and I can get so worked up about it that I just end up stepping away…or, more recently letting Blueprint CSS do all the work for me.
Then I got to thinking about how my life right now is all about getting down to the essentials…getting rid of all the fluff and getting down to what’s most necessary…most useful. Something blank and ready to accept what it’s given…I don’t care about style as much these days as I care about process: the stuff that’s getting me to where I am. I don’t even want to know if my latest work is showing that, but it’s where I want to be…especially in a place like this where I can play and create and experiment.
I don’t know…just kind of thinking out loud, I guess…and you know you’re a geek when you’re waxing poetic about Cascading Style Sheets, comparing them to LIFE and all…
That’s where I am, people. That’s where I am.
And didn’t you love that completely weird and sort of obtuse headline? What does it even MEAN??
