Either you will it to happen, or it just won’t.
This is a site about me, Andy Bons. I’m actually unclear whether that last sentence is grammatically correct, or if I just spelled “gramatically” correctly or not. The point of the story is that after months of designing mockups, snipping concepts, researching grid design, reading The Elements of Typographic Style and presumably accruing web site design knowledge from my job as a front-end developer at Google, I still just couldn’t finalize any of it. Everything was always a nice little box of knowledge that I tucked away never to be opened or consolidated later.
I could say something like “No more! I will post updates daily and people will read!” but let’s be honest with ourselves here. No one’s reading yet. This is just to prove to myself that I can actually dust the crud off of my current web site and take another crack at assembling an online reputation worth a thousand twitter followers. Because that’s what really matters, dammit. Betcha didn’t know that ‘dammit’ was spelled without the ‘n’, huh? Yeah you probably did, actually.
