Time for an Update

2014-11-5

My personal page at malcolmdwyer.com was last touched by me in 2006. "We had a baby" was the final change, made just after our daughter Rory was born. At that time I started sharing photos on a MobileMe photo gallery. A couple years after that I started sharing posts and photos on Facebook. Malcolmdwyer.com languished.

Now I'm ready to get back to building my own site.

In my career, I've been a web developer for several years now — and doing web development in one form or another since 1995. I claim to be some kind of expert at this stuff, so I should be able to do this myself, right?

Here goes...

My goals for the page:

  • Standard bloggy type stuff
  • A place for web development experiments on any new projects I might come up with.
  • A gallery for my photos. I know there are better places to share photos, but building a cool photo gallery is a good exercise.
  • A place for other interests...

My goals in working on the page:

  • Use node.js
  • Use some kind of CSS preprocessor (SASS/LESS/etc.)
  • Deploy using git to a PaaS.
  • Updated design (obviously)
  • Responsive design?
