Current Update
Ok I’ll admit it– I haven’t blogged simply due to disappointment. No its true I did feel a bit down after it hit and I’ve been in silent meditation.
This has allowed me reflection time– Time that I use to work on my website.
As for the website I’m building.. I have a few more tweaks to do on it then I’m going to work on importing blog posts from here to there.
As of like right now– it’s all experimental. To tell the truth I’m completely new to CMS’s other then maybe wordpress. Already maybe 3 or 4 times I’ve seriously considered trashing drupal for wordpress– but I’m going to keep a little bit more at it. I’m banking on a few things, one of which is an explosion of new knowledge and my skill at tweaking css.
In any case… My big thought coming home was to perhaps incorporate a “photocast” idea. This is a simple java or flash based photo album blog-style post that runs on a pre-defined timer that’s set to a podcast mp3 running either within the photo album or underneith it.
Presentation wise, I believe it would be great to watch a story unfold through pictures like a book. I’ll have to work up an example, try it out, and see what happens.
Until then..
