I’m playing with a few different site designs behind the scenes.
(Love me some WAMP server BTW).
I think I’ll keep things fairly basic and flat like the last few design iterations but I’m not sold on a color scheme yet.
What do you think?
Just looking over some of the numbers…
I’ve been officially blogging since April 28, 2005. That’s roughly 2557 days.
I’ve posted 4,332 different posts – or an average of 1.6 posts per day.
It probably helps that in November 2006 I had 151 posts that month.
I have 27 drafts that have yet to see the light of day – and maybe never will.
I currently have 11 different pages on this site – a number that changes on a fairly regular basis.
I’ve received 2,741 comments1.
I have 34 different categories on my blog (geeze?!) and Faith is the most populated category with 951 posts.
And I’ve uploaded 769 images to various posts – not including images posted to Flickr or various other sites.
I’ve changed directions on this blog countless times and right now I’m really missing the ebb and flow I used to have with just sharing cool things and ideas on the web. Somewhere along the way I got too focused on trying to be a “serious” blogger and started using social media for the random links throughout the day. Even though that’s also led to COUNTLESS broken links on my site now, I miss having a solid repository of those things that stood out to me over the years. Twitter and Facebook just don’t have a solid way of making those things searchable or accessible in their archives.
So, there may be another shift in the works — again. I’m swearing off Facebook again for a month and hoping to use my blog more and more for the posts I usually share there.
So here’s to the next seven years and wherever the journey takes us.
1I know that number is a bit high because I continually find places where Disqus duplicated comments in my database. #facepalm
I met Jesus Olivares at Eastfield College and got him to show off his fresh ink for me.
The upper ink on his left arm was less than a week or two old.
Refusing to forgive someone is like drinking poison and hoping it harms the other person.
Live your life in such a way that you don’t have to carry around that burden any longer.
Tim’s Place – a place for breakfast, lunch and hugs.
I DARE you to watch this and not be inspired:
