    New Tumblr URL, Avatar & Username

    I’ve moved away from my old blog.androidworkshop.com domain and have switched to tumblr.daught.me to match my portfolio site daught.me

    I managed to get all my content to forward from the old domain so I don’t lose search engine rank or break links to this blog. I used this .htaccess method via a web host I have access to.

    I have also decided to move away from my old NetworkShadow username for most social sites and use my real name Nathaniel.

    And finally, I have retired my trusty robot avatar in favor of my own face.

    I Work For The Internet

    staff:

    We work for the Internet. And we’re guessing many of you do too. Whether it’s researching, selling, coding, supporting, designing — so many of our careers depend on the Internet.

    One argument that’s been made to Congress is that the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) is needed to protect American jobs. In truth, the new liabilities this bill would impose on startups could stop American innovation in its tracks.

    To make this clear to Congress, we’ve built IWorkForTheInternet.org to show the world how many of our careers depend on the Internet.

    If you work for the Internet, please add yourself and spread the word.

    This blog isn’t dead

    Sorry for the lack of posting lately… I’ve been distracted by work and my personal life (and video games I got for Xmas).

    I’ve also been working on my site redesign that I’ve been talking about for ages. I’m getting close to being happy with the new design and have gotten my head wrapped around how Squarespace works.

    I do also want to try creating a new digital painting to feature on the new website; if I can become inspired and my schedule permits.

    New stuff in the works

    I’ve decided to redesign my website using Squarespace as my host and publishing platform. I will likely keep this Tumblr blog open for my casual fun posts, (I am a fan of Tumblr) and use my Squarespace blog for the more formal site/design/art related posts. I’ll also look into integrating the two via feeds so followers of this Tumblr don’t have to go out of their way to see my other posts.

    I picked Squarespace because it will allow me to redesign my site easily without having to worry about maintaining a backend too (like Wordpress for example). My site has been just venilla html/css as of March 2008; while I don’t need to worry about a backend I still have to hand code all my content and crop thumbnails etc… Thus updates are few, and it’s been nearly 2 years since my last redesign. With Squarespace I’m free to redesign whenever I want without worrying about my content.

    Look forward to updates in the near future. I’m not sure how long the redesign will take, I’ll have to get comfortable with Squarespace before I get creative.

    500 mil. gallon toxic coal waste spill in TN

    Because I live in TN I found this story of interest. I was surprised to see this news story on Digg today seeing as it had happened Monday (Dec 22) and I hadn’t heard a thing about via word of mouth or national news (I don’t watch local TV etc).
