Upcoming Blog Changes
The BluDice blog will be going under some major changes during the upcoming month, including:
- Domain change to "davidwalsh.name"
- Added "Tools" section, where I will provide numerous Web Developer tools to allow you to compress your CSS, HTML, and JavaScript, and much more
- Custom design -- even I know the current one is awful
- Blog posts with images and in-depth examples (I've been holding off on some cool MooTools stuff for the new design)
- More personalized content -- the site wont be about my person life, but I plan to throw more of my own flavor into writing.
- More reader interaction. I'd like to do a "mailbag" post from time to time, where you can ask questions.
Do you have any requests or ideas for the blog? Please share them!
