New site preview

My new site is coming along slowly, but surely. Even though I’ve had the Photoshop designs for many months (thanks, Jonny!), the actual HTML and CSS build has been quite a challenge. Getting a pixel-perfect representation of the design that works consistently across browsers has been tricky! So, I’ve made a few compromises along the way but overall am very happy how things are turning out.

Here is a small preview of what will become my new homepage:

I’ll be adding content to the other pages and tidying up over the next few weeks before letting it out in the wild. Let me know what you think!

Singletons and global state

A very useful article from Google’s MiÅ¡ko Hevery about the problems with the Singleton design pattern. Essentially, Singleton’s rely on a global instance variable which could point to any number of other variables, thus creating a global state. This causes problems when you want to test your code.

New Blog Design

I’ve installed a new WordPress Theme to freshen things up a bit. It’s called Spotlight and I think it’s a nice minimalist design, with enough flair to keep the page looking interesting.

Let me know what you think!
