About this site's lack of design: Yes, it's supposed to look this way — I'm helping create a new sandbox theme for WordPress (see it on GitHub).

Ephemera Rules

I know it’s not much, but for those of you arriv­ing here via Zeldman.com I’d just like to say: “hey.”

Take a look around, kick the tires (this public-redesign is pretty tough when no one gives you feed­back…) and let me know what you think, or what you find in the way of prob­lems. Be aware that the deeper you delve into this site, the more incon­sis­ten­cies you are likely to find…

Almost all my read­ers are com­ing from the link on Zeldman’s site today, and I’d cer­tainly love to hear from some of you!

UPDATE: It was pointed out that the site was miss­ing its archives, so for those who want to explore, I present to you: Super­flu­ousArchives

    I hope I’m not miss­ing some­thing… but,

    Other than using the search func­tion, how does one view pre­vi­ous posts?

    Often­times I don’t have a clear pur­pose or search key­word in mind when I’m brows­ing, and just like to stum­ble onto an inter­est­ing topic (that might prompt a sub­se­quent search).

    A ‘Pre­vi­ous’ button/link at the end of the page, or some sort of Archive link in your Inter­nal side­bar would be nice.

    Regard­less, every­thing looks won­der­fully crisp, and I am enjoy­ing the Pur­ple Dream color scheme very much.

    Hi Arikawa, thanks for remind­ing me about the archives. I’ve been mean­ing to fin­ish mark­ing up the archive tem­plates, and adding them to the side­bar, but it obvi­ously became delayed :-)

    I’ll be fin­ish­ing the redesigned ver­sions soon — in the mean­time, here’s a link to the orig­i­nal archive page: Super­flu­ousArchives

    I love the clean look to your design. It makes me want to go back and rethink my site, which is a work in progress. I know a design is good when it inspires me.

    Thanks for the kind words Carl, it’s won­der­ful to know that this design does more than just coat my site :-)

    Post your URL here, I’d love to take a look!
