I’ve got new boots (again).
They kinda grew up. They’re all, like, sophisticated and stuff. And they are going places.
They are actually the same boots I had originally used back in 2006…but retooled a bit. And they have legs now–excitement!
The new tagline is “notes from a UX geek”. UX = user experience (design).
My goal with the redesign is to give the blog a focus.
In 2011 I gained a lot of clarity about who I am and what I want to do. And it boils down to “UX”. UX for software, and UX for life. I’m an optimizer.
A few months ago I gutted the blog, removing most of the older posts because I wanted to establish new lines between public and private and eliminate the “processing out loud” aspect. I couldn’t see any value in them if you weren’t interested in my personal history, and I don’t like just leaving crap laying around.
But I still didn’t have a focus and it felt like this blog existed for no reason. Perhaps it had outlived its purpose?
Perhaps it has, but with this new design I am attempting to take it in a new direction and we’ll see if that pans out. =)

Note: my apologies to subscribed folks about the old post getting mailed out. I un-hid some old posts and FeedBurner decided they were “new” even though they are clearly not new at all. So it sent you the Easter Jesus one again…sorry!
Nice boots!
