Web Stuff

Oh, who am I kidding. You caught me. I'm really a web designer (formerly pro). I'm many other things, too, but this website exists out of a love for the web.

There's not much on this page for now, because the bulk of my work is elsewhere. But have some of my web design.

A few notes from recent experience:

• a static website has high overhead when creating a new page;
• a static site generator has high overhead when making small changes often;
• a blog has high overhead when looking up old entries.

This overhead is mostly in time and attention; CPU usage is another story.

In other news, two people in particular have inspired much of my recent work:

• Flamed Fury
• Parimal Satyal

Both are on Neocities as well, though you wouldn't know it at first sight. So are other inspiring sites:

• Working Toward a Better Internet (a.k.a. sadgrl.online)
• The Yesterweb - Reclaiming the Internet

And speaking of Neocities, here's a neat trick that many people here might find useful:
