What I’ve been up to
It’s been brought to my attention that I’m not updating enough, so much so that friends have begun to worry that something has happened to me (sorry Zak!).
Something has happened to me, and more on that later, but that is not the reason for my blog absence. I’ve simply been inundated with new projects. That coupled with a quick trip up to Dalian last week that left me without Internet for a few days, has kept me focused on other things.
Busyness has been a theme of late, a fact that has been reflected in my decision to…

Blog redesign, take 5-ish
As will be apparent to everyone reading this, sans feed readers, the blog is undergoing a bit of reconstructive surgery. Please bear with me as I juggle the redesign of the site with “real” work.
I had nothing against the last design (despite it borrowing 5 bucks and not paying it back), but after having it for nearly two years I was starting to itch for something new. So, I sat down Sunday morning and killed the ass-end of my weekend whipping up what you see before you. There are still a bunch of kinks I need to work…

It’s time to confess – Web 2.0 style
The other day an idea for a new site hit me, and as I was waiting for some deliverables from a client to arrive and didn’t have much to do, I figured – what the hell.
The site is called Twitfessions, and essentially it tracks and displays any Twitter tweets that are tagged with #confession. Basically it’s a fun way to relieve yourself of that little secret or unspoken sin you committed – in a very Web 2.0 way.
Twitter, for those that don’t know, is a micro-blogging service – so, instead of…

Redesigning The Duck
Back in 2004 when I decided to come to China I immediately hit the blogs to get a “feel” for what life for expats was like there.
There were three blogs that immediately became my favourites, and have largely remained so in the nearly four years since.
That I’ve now had the privilege of (re)designing two of these sites is something, I don’t mind admitting, I’m a bit proud of.
Derrick’s site, Mask of China, which has gone from a blog to an online showcase of his amazing photography, was the…

The Humanaught v3 Has Arrived
My eyes are cooked, my ass is numb, my fingers are cramped… the redesign is done!
For anyone not reading this in their RSS feed reader or on a splog, the changes should be pretty apparent. But I’m going to run through some of them anyway 
First, I should mention, I’m not a big fan of switching themes. I think a blog develops some of its character from the look of it, and if it’s changing all the time, I feel it takes something away from it all.
That said, I really wanted to…

Dao By Design
So, yesterday I entered my fourth decade on this watery rock. I’m officially 30. The Big Three-Oh (My-God).
Meh.
I had a friend ask if I was freaking out about it at all, and really, I’m not even a little. You hear about it, they make Hallmark cards for it, people generally fuss over it. But what I think it has most to do with is contentedness, or a lack thereof.
I tend to look at life like a long string of dots. Each dot is a memory or event that has happened to me. Some dots are bigger and…

Mask of China: Redux
Some of you may know my friend Derrick’s blog, Mask of China. Starting out in Dalian back in 2003, it has since followed its master to Hong Kong where it has continued to be a fixture of the Sinosphere.
It was with moist eyes that I heard Derrick (Dezza) was hanging up his blogging cap, despite having seen it coming for a long time, as he constantly told me he was losing interest in writing, and shifting his energies to other creative endeavors – namely, his amazing flare for photography.
However, it was still tough to hear,…
