A little bit ago I posted an article in my geek speak section of my site titled CSS Diagnostics - Find Depreciated Elements Using CSS. I've seen very little written about it via a few quick web searches so it was something that I figured might peak other's interest. Boy was I right, according to my horrible inaccurate but useful "views counter" I'm already up to 300 views on the article. What's even cooler is another blogger gave me a nod in his latest entry titled "Really cool CSS diagnostics script." When I get mentioned in other people's blogs I feel like I've officially arrived.
It feels really good to get some attention for my CSS skills. Of all the various facets of web development and design, this is the specific area I've chosen to specialize in. My dream, is to one day become a famous blogger, speaker, writer, advocate for CSS, and to travel around the country giving speeches on it and writing books. Of course that is probably far fetched and I should just stick to my second dream of being the head of a web department consisting of 10 or more people and living in a parade of homes style house. For the time being I'll continue to push out new articles that hopefully are useful to people and write boring blogs for my family and friends to read.
In other news, this weekend Emily and I went back to New London. I haven't seen my parents since Christmas which feels like a horribly long time. My house is completely covered in snow, in fact probably the most snow I've ever seen there. Also Emily was sick last week and now I'm sick. I have a really bad cough and I sort of feel dizzy all the time. Not much fun.
This weekend my parents bought me an acoustic guitar for my birthday (which is coming up in March). Check out my wallpapers page for some close up shots of the new guitar. I've played it a bunch since I got it and it's nice to have during apartment living.
Well that's about all for now, hopefully I'll start feeling better.
