Nearly two years ago, Born Geek opened its doors for the first time. Roughly six months later, Year of the Code Monkey did the same. The plan in those good ol’ days was simple: Born Geek was to be my primary web presence, while this blog was to be a fun side project. Somewhere along the way, the roles got reversed. This website has received way more loving than its older sister, and it’s starting to show. Time for a change? You bet.
I am in the process of moving Born Geek to the Movable Type platform, and I hope to complete the shift in the next two weeks. There are a total of 106 pages to be migrated (103 of which are static HTML), though not every one of those pages is coming along for the ride; all of the news archives will be tossed and I may also remove the Firefox 1.0 toolbar tutorial. In this vein, an overall site simplification scheme is planned. Step one will be to migrate to the new platform and go live. Step two will focus on simplifying each page, condensing the copy on each considerably. Once I’m finished, the site should both look and feel better.
