Are now available on the About section of this site, specifically, my vCard information and my hResume. What odd names, for incredibly perplexing formats. Even for microformats, as the term goes. Yes, I am aware that the hResume specifcation isn’t exactly finalized yet, but hear this: I henceforth make the bold prediction that it will be.
Bold, isn’t it?
If you have absolutely no idea what that last paragraph of geek-oriented rubbish was about, know this; microformats will change the world as we know it, though maybe not cure the problem of utter stupidity. It’s indeed an interesting proposition, though, and unless you have a good reason to otherwise, it might be wise to click on a few hyperlinks in that paragraph above to venture forth into the unknown and perhaps find out more.
It’s been a little while since I’ve actually made such a humongous change to the actual structure of the site, which kind of shows in the changes to the code, which, if you’ll kindly hit Ctrl-U (Assuming you are, of course, using Firefox), will notice to be more semantic than my usual methods of coding. There’s still a long way to go, of course; I need to change quite a few more CSS classes in the site stylesheet before I’d consider this particular update updated. As it is, I’m through for the weekend, and for the night.
It seems that I still have an Economics tutorial unfinished, alas. I wasn’t exactly planning on trading stocks and shares anyhow.
Anyway, you’ll notice that the sidebar content for some of the pages has changed slightly. Expect more changes to take place as I brainstorm all sorts of different widgets to be placed into positions that might seem aesthetic. Though perhaps not to the average user. More importantly, however, I’ve decided to license this entire site, including all of the works in the gallery under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.5 license, which may prove shocking in retrospect, considering this website is a portfolio of sorts, and I doubt people usually think royalty-free and proprietary works go in the same sentence. I am, however, an avid advocate of anything that has to do with the phrase open-source, and as such, such a statement proclaiming it so isn’t really anything new to me, plus it makes the index page look so much sexier.
Besides, all my works on deviantART and Flickr were already being uploaded with the same licensing terms, so I guess this shouldn’t really come as a surprise. Except for Zazzle, of course, but only because they don’t have an option to make it so.
You’ll also notice the addition of a few more icons to the site, which I had previously put forth into vectors but failed to decide on their usage. They are now being used, so look around and rejoice at black-and-white bite-sized icons.
Now I have to focus on the next task at hand: updating my other sites to fit in with this newfound love for web standards. I can already taste the hot dogs I’ll be polishing off while working on it, which has gotten rather bad in the past few days, or weeks, actually. It seems that my solution to these sugar-induced comas of pure madness aren’t exactly working out.
No, I haven’t been working on ReBorn or Hard Life as of late; school’s literally ripping my guts out through every open orifice that my tortured soul provides.
