Most often these ruminations take place in my head, but I&#8217;m starting to move them out in to the world through conversations and sketches and thoughts in between. To be frank, I&#8217;ve grown bored of the design of my site. It&#8217;s not that there&#8217;s anything wrong with it in particular, it&#8217;s just that I&#8217;ve looked at it so much that it has become boring to me. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not sure what I intend to do about that. I don&#8217;t really have the time to code a new site from scratch. I suppose I could just play with my stylesheets and change the look-and-feel to something new-ish, but I want to do so much more. Here are a list of things I&#8217;d like to do, in no particular order:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Improve the visual layout, typography, and overall design of the site<\/li>\n<li>Make it easy for myself and others to add content (possibly via a wiki, but at least via some sort of commenting<\/li>\n<li>Convert my blog from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sixapart.com\/movabletype\/\">MoveableType<\/a> to <a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\/\">WordPress<\/a> &#8211; This is for a number of reasons, but mainly because I&#8217;ve been bothered by a lot of things in Moveable Type: lots of errors have popped up, and the Open-Sourceness of WordPress is quite inviting<\/li>\n<li>Make my blog more visible from my webpage &#8211; Right now my blog is simply a menu item&#8230;I would like it to stand out more, that might make my site more dynamic<\/li>\n<li>Give more visibility to all the other sites on my domain that I frequent: <a href=\"http:\/\/josh.ev9.org\/jCal\">My Calendar<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/josh.ev9.org\/capstone\">My Capstone Wiki<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/josh.ev9.org\/jminder.php\">jMinder<\/a>, etc.\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is a good list to start with. At least I can just look at it, at most I can act on it. There just seems to be so much else going on at the moment&#8230;gaaaar.<\/p>\n<p>If you can think of anything else I might do to <a href=\"http:\/\/josh.ev9.org\/\">josh.ev9.org<\/a>, or have any critique of the current one, please let me know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I&#8217;ve been ruminating about my website a lot lately.
