Version 1

This site was built for the CIS Computers and Applications course. It looks bad, but I got full credit for it. Check out the awesome rollover buttons–that was extra credit…

Version 2

This site was innovative in how the site navigation worked. On top of a few different pages, there were “tours” that users would walk through and be presented with information I wanted them to see–think of it as a glorified PowerPoint. Though, the design is bad, it has a pretty cool photo gallery in one of the tours.

Version 3

This was the first wordpress implementation that I attempted; it was kind of a disaster. I was trying to do some advanced things that I was not ready for; such as, using posts as news feeds, using a sidebar that picked a random post containing a quote, and using posts to operate the picture of the week. Most of these features actually worked, but I never worked out some of the details–how I wanted the different templates to work.

Version 4

This was a transitional site. Even before I started building it, I had Version 5 in mind–think of it as a “vista”. I had my heart set on building a wordpress theme, but I needed to put something presentable up on my URL. I was trying out some of those web 2.0 design concepts–I think I did it wrong…

Version 5

This is what you are looking at now. As mentioned before, I wanted to balance professionalism with personality. Ideally, this is a site can be used for two purposes: (1) I can share it with potential employers via business cards and my resume to add value to my application, and alternatively (2) I can share my knowledge and contribute to the internet.
