Front Page Redesign

The front page has a new look and a whole bunch more functionality. It used to be a menu and nothing more; now the menu is moved to the side to allow for all kinds of content. The page now features:

• The latest headlines from this weblog
• A short description of the page
• My recent posts to del.icio.us
• Selected photos from my flickr photostream.

And that new content goodness is wrapped in a fresh new coat of paint – crimson and cream, like an antique car or a kid’s bike. There’s also a brand-spanking-new logo treatment, inspired in part by this post at 37signals.

The logo looks best in Safari since it uses css-based text-shadowing, but users of other browsers will get the picture as well. Let me know if anything else breaks horribly.
