What I’ve been doing
I shut this blog down on Jan. 28, 2010 because I got fired at the Muskogee Phoenix and started a new business.
I got fired because I made a joke about a politician on this blog on my own time. The "free speech" advocate Muskogee Phoenix didn't agree with my position on that particular politician, so they summarily fired me. The next day, I launched MuskogeeNOW.com, an online-only competitor to the Phoenix, something I had been planning to do for a long time anyway.
Here's what MuskogeeNOW looks like:
Honestly, it's not the prettiest website in the world, but that's kind of the point. It's a serious news site that hopefully gives readers what the Phoenix doesn't.
I'm also designing Web sites for other people, and this is more indicative of my work:
Interestingly, that site was produced using only two images: the dude with the guitar and the picture of the guitar. Everything else was done with hand-coded html, php and css - not even any javascript. That won't mean much to most readers, but I'm pretty proud of it nonetheless.
Anyway, I'll be updating this blog again, but not nearly as frequently - and probably not on the same subjects - as before. My guess is I'll be using this blog to feature my Web and programming work.
Here's another site I'm doing:
It's for a store that sells home decorations. Here's a picture of the overlay when someone clicks an image:
