In exploring the approach to development I had for my own website, I recognized that I was serially redesigning it and proverbially spinning my wheels. The unfortunate part of this vicious cycle is that it was all manufactured by me – the site, the content and perception that the obstacles were insurmountable. So last weekend I decided to leverage what I could from my existing efforts (css, images, javascript) and start fresh building on top of a strong theme framework base – Thematic. I did so with a new approach to the design, development and writing for the site. In this post, I explain why for my own personal sites / projects I have come to the conclusion that I will never try to build a perfect website again.
