And We’re In Business!
The blog has been successfully moved to the new domain and theme. Took longer than I wanted, but doesn't everything?
A few of the roadblocks I ran into include:
- MooTools & Syntax Highlighter didn't cooperate as I hoped. The issue was with Syntax Highlighter, but I've iron out this issue.

- WordPress' list-driven navigation. A lot of WordPress revolves around lists, which in most cases is good, but why use UL/OL/LI if you can simply use "display:block;" CSS?
In any event, the new blog is up and I'd love to hear your thoughts on the design and how I can improve the website!

Another reason that I love Twitter so much is that I'm able to check out what fellow developers think is interesting. Chris Coyier posted about a flashlight effect he found built with jQuery. While I agree with Chris that it's a little corny, it...
