Final Transit 4.8

Geek Alert: There couldn’t have been a geekier title than that. Yes yes, I am a geek and proud of it.

Presenting…
[drums][more drums]
!Tada!
A brand new look of my website. :) [yay!]
Ok I know, unless you are a first time visitor, that you have probably guessed it already. This is what I call “Version 4.8″ and I hope you like it.

Oh by the way, I also got a MacBook, you know, an Apple Laptop. I got up on Wednesday morning and while biking to work I was mulling over how nothing exciting has happened in the last 2 days. So I decided to make it exciting and what else could be more exciting than spending money on a cute little thing? Clearly, I sound quite excited, but I definitely am excited, and will be until I get the credit card bill. Apple gave away an iPod Touch free with this purchase, so I have more toys to play with. This coincides with the abrupt demise of my older laptop and confirms my final departure from the world of Windows OS. Exciting!

Anyway, back to the website. Thanks everyone who gave me elaborate feedback on how bad the previous version sucked. I’ll dedicate my next glass of Cranberry juice to you (since I gave up on beer). Cheers!

So, does something look different here? Is it better to navigate? Faster? What do you think? Notice a bug? Comments and criticism welcome (but please don’t say something obvious like – “wow the new look is nice!”, I know that already..;) (talk about smartassedness).) I will be tweaking for the next few days.

    Macbook and free iPhone.. guess, you wouldn’t have slept until you explored the features :)

    The very first of your blog was awesome. The one which had 4 basic elements button. I miss that template a lot!
