I think I&#8217;ve finally come up with something that I like, too &#8212; miracles never cease!<\/p>\n<p>This time, I took some time to bounce around some of the sites that have caught my eye the most. Generally, they tend to be the exact opposite of what I&#8217;ve had here for a long time. Where I&#8217;ve had some sort of compulsion to present everything possible at once, all on the front page, I&#8217;m far more drawn to very sparse, open, clean designs. Yet, for absolutely no reason that I can come up with, I&#8217;d never made an attempt at that style.<\/p>\n<p>So, this is where I think I&#8217;m heading at the moment. The navigation bar at the top will take care of all the extraneous crap. &#8216;About&#8217; will lead to my about page, which will absorb things like my music and reading lists. &#8216;Past&#8217; takes care of my archives. &#8216;Comments&#8217; will catch the last <em>n<\/em> comments made (I&#8217;m waffling on this one, actually &#8212; it seems a little silly to have a page just for that, but it&#8217;s also really nice to have a quick reference of when someone&#8217;s said hello). &#8216;Elsewhere&#8217; will handle both the blogroll and the Destinations feed (just how, I&#8217;m not sure yet, but that will come). And lastly, &#8216;Feeds&#8217; will hold my RSS feeds (which I plan on expanding to include an excerpts feed, a full post feed, and a comment feed).<\/p>\n<p>At least, that&#8217;s the basic concept to start with. As always, questions, comments and words of wisdom are greatly appreciated!<\/p>\n<p>Update: A quick list of inspirations, code examples, and other ideas as I work on this.
