Moved domain

December 27th, 2009

Recently, I was looking through a few short domains, and decided to buy dan.cx. I think it’s a pretty good domain, even if .cx is an odd TLD (it’s the TLD for Christmas Island which is close to Australia, so I guess it’s kinda related :P ). It’s better than my old one (d15.biz) in my opinion. “d15″ doesn’t have too much meaning (apart from people that know it means “Daniel15″), whereas “dan” is a lot better. I’ll still be using the old domain for some things (it’ll still be my main email domain, since there doesn’t seem to be a way to change the domain of a Google Apps setup, which is what I’m using for my email). I also got daniel.gd last night, but I’m not sure where I’ll use that (“daniel good?” I dunno). It currently just redirects to dan.cx. I should probably stop buying domains. But, I bought these instead of renewing a few domains. I don’t really work on MySpaceTools any more, so I’m just letting the domain expire. :P

I guess you’ve probably noticed, but I’ve been doing some updates to my site (finally!). I rewrote it to use my own very simple CMS  (instead of a static HTML file), and added a “Projects” page showing some of the bigger projects I’ve worked on in the past. I’m considering switching the site to be fully WordPress (instead of just the blog), but I haven’t done that just yet. Not sure if I will, I’m happy with the simple CMS for now. I thought WordPress might be easier for site management though. And the main part of the site is the blog, which might be better in the root. I dunno.

A proper blog post will come eventually. One day. :)

Until next time,

New layout

March 10th, 2008

Well, as you can see here, my blog has a new layout. The layout itself was written from scratch by me, although some parts of it were based off a nice two-column CSS layout tutorial I found whilst searching in Google. This layout is not yet complete, I’m still working on it. What do you think so far? :)

The only problem now is my lack of blog posts. I haven’t really had time to blog, but I’ll definitely try to write some more posts here soonish :P
