It's about time

After many years of hand wringing about my lack of a proper site, I’ve finally flipped the switch. For the savvy, add the feed to your favourite reader. For those who like to kick it oldschool, bookmarks still work. You can even sign up for email updates.

The techy bits

• The design was lovingly hand coded from scratch (in Textmate of course)
• Grid based on the awesome Blueprint CSS framework
• Design shoved into a Wordpress template against its will. One day I’ll switch to a better blogging engine

I’m looking at you. Yes you

My name is Andrew. I hail from the land of wooden shoes and tulip precipitated economic collapse. My hobbies include creepily taking pictures of people, loving concrete, and living online.

Update: Apparently it was a specifications failure.
