What's hot, what's new, what's happening!

Alpha release is up!
16 May 2009

Wow, it's finally here, a very first Alpha release of my personal web site. It has been a long time since it was announced to be in the works, but like anything in life, sometmes things just happen, or not.

I guess the main drive behind realising it is the need to promote my Curriculum Vitae to the outside world, as well as the growing shame of having a web site in iWeb. I mean come on, with all the programming and XHTML/CSS skills I should take the time to put some effort in my own personal representation on the web. For too long only Avencius has been given redesigns and content love (it even has a stolen Drupal theme from a previous incarnation of this web site). So now it's here, and just like my other web site I do it with an evolutionairy development.

This site was created in Dashcode with the help of Pixelmator on my iMac. Of course it was tested with Firefox 3.5, Safari 4 Public Beta and Safari Mobile (latest iPod touch software update). And breaks CSS 2.1 compatibility as I wanted to use CSS 3 style rounded borders.

In the future I will replace static content with dynamic content once I find a good Java-powered host (using either JBoss, GlassFish or Tomcat), and more or less invent parts of my own CMS system.

But for now, just enjoy a free album from Coldplay called LeftRightLeftRightLeft.
