This is one of those “I’m still alive and kicking” type posts.

It’s been over a month since my last post, and for that I apologise. The last thing I wrote was the second installment of my series on the HTML table, complete with promise of a third installment to follow before Christmas. That didn’t happen.

In fact, many things I’d planned to get done before and after Christmas didn’t happen.

In the build up to the holidays I was too busy in work, manically grafting to get some projects finished the right side of “Year end”. During the holidays I have to be honest and say I had no inclination to pick up my laptop and write when I was at home to spend time with family and friends. After the holidays, all those “we’ll sort them in the new year” projects took over.

The time off from writing for this site has been refreshing, and has let me evaluate my priorities and goals for the site slightly, and I’ve hatched a rough plan.

Over the coming months I hope to morph this site into more of a CV / portfolio style site and less of a blog. I still aim to write articles when a topic grabs me and time allows. But I will not be keeping to my one post a week target I set when I started out. I’m toying with the idea of focusing more on the “elsewhere” style industry tit-bit type posts instead.

When I started this site it was a bit of an experiment to see what would happen. I had no specific goals, and no real plan for a topic or audience (something I feel shows) I just wanted something that wasn’t a personal day-in-the-life-of style blog. The reason I had no specific audience (a cardinal sin when writing, I know) was because I couldn’t decide whether I wanted to write for web geeks, like me, or for web clients. It turns out that by being indecisive I’ve not really been comfortable writing for either.

So going forward, when I do write, I intend to write for me. I’ll be my own audience. I’ll write about things that interest me, still themed around the web and user experience and interface design.

But before I can move on with the new approach, I feel compelled to fulfill my broken promise and share with you all the next installment of the HTML table series. Expect that to land next Thursday. After that who knows when the next article will be, I don’t. I do know that things will start to look a little different here as my experiment continues.

Thanks for staying tuned so far.
