From the Ashes

Hello all and welcome!
As you can see, things are looking a bit different around here, both the layout/design and the actual domain name itself. I am taking things in a new direction and wanted to officially welcome you to my new home on the internet! Here I will be writing Tech Reviews, How To’s, and Posting things that I find interesting or new from all around.
This is my first Wordpress theme and I have to say that I am really pleased with it. I will be adjusting and tweaking in in the coming days / weeks, so be patient, but the main aspects will remain the same.
Brief Walkthough
- Up top you see a picture of myself and a brief about snippet.
- Just beneath that is your standard navigation.
- The main content area is just that, you will see the intro of the latest posts on the main page and the body of the entire post on each individual posts page.
- The sidebar to the right will be one area that’s changing a bit, but you will find:
- my latest Tweet and Twittercounter
- a reserved section just in case someone decides they want to advertise on my site (*hint *hint) there are two spots available - each 150px X 150px
- next to that there is a widget for a brilliant new service, pleasedressme, from AJ Vaynerchuk, Gary Vaynerchuk, and Joe Stump(all three are incredible guys, if you don’t know that already, read around the web and see for yourselves)
- Below that currently I am including a section for featured and recent posts, but this may change
- Lastly, but certainly not last in importance is my footer section, here I have included(which may be subject to change):
- Left, A section for links to other projects or sites that I have around the web
- Middle, A smattering of different social sites that you can find me and friend me up on!
- Right, The latest 4 photos from my flickr account
So, Now that I have walked you through somewhat of a senseless (to most of you) rundown of my site, I hope you’ll stick around and enjoy the content that I will be sending your way. Feel free to subscribe to or just bookmark this site!
Thanks again and I look forward to hearing your thoughts on what I’m doing here and where this site is heading (blatant hint for comments).
What’s your latest venture?
