The first incarnation of this website had existed in its basic format since 1999, and was well overdue for an overhaul. Working in a full time capacity - and on a steady stream of freelance projects, while maintaining my other passions, interests and commitments have kept me quite busy, and a new version of my website just wasn't high on the "priority totem pole".

That being said, my skills as a web designer and web developer have increased greatly lo these many years, and I felt that site version 1.0 had long since ceased representing me accurately from a creative, intellectual and marketing standpoint. To that end, I present to Version 2.0

I have not made any major updates to the site since 2.0 Launch, nor have I had time to populate any of my CyberLibrarian, Links or other database tables with much content since the release. I have extremely busy at work. One project that I have been working on is a site that requires strict Section 508 Compliance and accessibility. It has been a very challenging and enlightening experience, but my results have been very successful and highly praised. It has lead me to make the decision to redesign this site - again!

I am still very busy, and have been under the weather a bit, and still finishing my basement, so I am not sure when this will get done. But the next release will feature:

• A completely table-free layout using only positioned DIVs for layout (tables will be employed appropriately for data).
• A completely accessible and 508 compliant site. This means I will likely need to dispense with the groovy DHTML menu, unless of course I use a DOM sniffer to fork the logic, and then include it if someone has a javascript enabled browser but not if they don't. But more likely I will use a more accessible means of navigation.
• Site will be valid XHTML Transitional

Other goals:

• Finish fleshing out left and right column content
• Finish populating categories with data
• Integration of some sort of blog area

Stay Tuned for further developments
