I’m pretty happy I finally got around to re-designing my site. I still have some cleaning to do, like laying out the categories pages, adding some redirects for old posts and old subdomains, but other than that we’re ready to rock.

This may the closest I have ever come to actually being almost satisfied with my design. It’s fairly simple, but hey I did it myself! Also, I’ve been working on some non-tech related stuff at limitemagazine.com. We have our “launch” on Tuesday so wish us luck.

Some new snazzy doodads you’ll notice are the comments, by disqus. Big up’s to the creators of that! Also, I added boxes to the left side and will be taking down all other pages/subdomains. Also, we’ve got a fresh install of Wordpress for my relaunch, so thanks Matt Mullenweg & co!

Also,I know it’s off topic, but I wanted to take this time to highlight a blog post from Marc Benioff, CEO of Sales Force, trying to legitimize “Web 3.0″. Buzzword creation aside, he goes on to talk about how client-server software is taking over in the enterprise, more specifically, Marc says:

“Web 3.0 is about replacing existing software platforms with a new generation of platforms as a service.”

I only have one thing to say, Marc, you are 100% correct. We’ll leave at that for now.

Lastly, I wanted to give you an idea of what I will be writing about so here is my unofficial list.

• PR for startups. Who, When, Where and How.
• Web Marketing for Startups. It’s not as hard as you think.
• iPhone web application development. It’s easy with or without a framework.
• Media Coverage/Usage/Inner Workings of the iZillow application I built with Safire.

So now that I’ve got a general roadmap to follow, I’ll start on the list in reverse order, starting next week. Have a good weekend!
