  • new look for jazzsequence.com: presenting jazzsequence::metal::

    i’m still putting the final touches on the site, but the new redesigned look is here.  the theory is based on some stuff that has been floating around the net about how websites will become more like lifestreams.  since i’ve never been really happy with any single lifestream client (and i’ve tried a bunch), i…

  • Is Comic Sans really a bad font?

    Comic frickin’ Sans …do you even  have to ask? i get the SitePoint newsletter, Design View.  I used to pretty much auto-delete these or filter them to my spambox but when i started using Outlook again, and was creating rules to keep my inbox clean, i decided to just filter it to the folder where all…

  • out of the woods

    so just about all i blog about these days is how the web design gig is going. that probably has something to do with the fact that i’ve been dreaming CSS lately. well this post won’t be any different. and i’m still f’ing dreaming CSS… we recently hit a landmark accomplishment. when we were first…

  • music in the digital revolution / web design project / virtual hosts / wish lists

    at the bottom of my site you will see a new flash widget thing.  it’s a promo for the new Saul Williams album which was done with Trent Reznor and is supposedly the next chapter in the Year Zero saga.  or at least supplementary material.  Trent said a couple weeks ago on his blog that…

  • msff

    i’ve added a couple hacks to the site to dissuade viewers from using internet explorer, including a javascript-powered microsoft-free weekend.  back in the early 00’s, microsoft-free friday was a thing.  this was around when firefox was just starting to gain momentum.  there were a couple of ways of implementing msff — one was an apache…
