Oooh I stayed up late last night working on my JenLeoLIVE! redesign. And then I couldn't get to sleep because my head was still spinning. I can't wait. I've been wanting this for ages and finally stopped putting it off. JenLeoLIVE! has been my personal blog but the problem is that I've neglected JenLeo.com. Don't even go look at it - it's 3 years old. So, now I'm going to make this a 1-stop shop. There will be a page for the books, the personal blog will keep going (and I'll probably update more because I'll enjoy looking at the blog again).
I even added a travel calendar so everyone can no what city/country we're in. And yes, that will include John's travel plans too.
This morning I hired John T. Unger (TypePad Hacks) to keep things moving along because I just couldn't get my head around CSS and what not last night. Our friend Bill with the great hair (who will play tournament blackjack but not poker at our home games) is the Photoshop hero working on my new header. I have to think of a really great gift for him as there has already been a lot of back and forth in trying to get it just right.
So. the bloggy blog blog will be up and going early next week at the latest, but I'm also begging for a rush job from John. Maybe I'll launch it first as soon as the header is done and then let him do his touches later.
Please tell me if you have any favorite personal website/blogs from a design standpoint. Especially if they're authors. I've always liked: Church of the Customer.

funny - tell someone NOT to do something like: "Don't even go look at it" - and I immediately had to pull up jenleo.com.
Don't click on my ads!...do you think that would work?

Thanks for the link to church. If you are looking for ideas for designs, maybe try the website designers themselves.

This isn't the whole redesign yet. Just preliminary changes until next week when he has the time to finish. John did some quick fixes for me before I left for Seattle and PDX.
