DigiKev gets an overhaul

It was long overdue, but finally I have got round to giving my DigiKev Web site a total overhaul. The previous Web site felt broken and although the design was adventurous it didn’t lend itself to the array of content I wished to put into it.

Blogging on the old platform was a chore too, there was a lot of faffing to get a Blog post to behave in the way I would like which increased the time. Time I don’t have so Blogging ground to a halt. This new Web site is using trusty WordPress with all the requirements I need and an infinite bag of bolt on plugins at the ready if necessary.

I am very kindly being hosted with Mark Steadman of Bluemilkshake, long term readers of this so far disjointed Blog will know he is a good friend of mine and gets mentioned here fairly regularly.

This is a completely new structure and design which I have built on a CSS Framework I have adapted from Blueprint CSS and the best parts of other great CSS Frameworks available. It is called frameworkThree and is ready for you to download and play with at your leisure. There may be some short term teething problems with the new Web site as I progressively test and iron out all the creases. If you spot anything please send me an email through the contact form or send me a tweet over on Twitter if you’re into that. My handle over there is @digikev

Overall, I am really happy with the new structure and design. It gives me a great platform to now develop from and with WordPress doing all the hard work in the background you will now be hearing a lot more from me again. You lucky, lucky people.
