New look on the blog  

I started a new project this week. A book, actually. And I set up a website for it. It’s called Deleting Music.

I was looking around for a really good WordPress template to use, and I found this one. It’s called P2. This video explains what’s so good about it, and you’ll probably get why I like it so much. In effect, if I’m logged in, all I have to do is come to this page you’re looking at right now, and just start typing. It’s brilliant.

As I messed about with it, I thought it would be really good to use that template here on my personal site too, and made a note to give it a try after May, once I’ve finished with all of the NZ Music Month one-a-day videos.

But I really love using it so much, I’ve decided to just jump in and start using it here. What do you think?

By the way – you can get yourself a little picture that’ll show up by your comments if you just go to Gravatar and upload an image.



Right now:

"@ConorFitzhenry Thanks. Looks like I'll have German, French, Spanish, Dutch, Finnish and Estonian ready to go by Monday."

  1. Likewise, I’ve reinvigorated another book I was toying with around this time last year, and still think is a really great potential project: Now We Are Different.

    At the moment, I’m just gathering data – something that happens as a natural by-product of what I do online anyway. This just makes it easy to collect and make sense of that information.

    So I can go and write that book in my ‘spare time’…

  2. I absolutely love the new theme, to the extent I’ve changed my own blog over to it. All they need to do is release the option to enter a title and category in the ‘speedy post’ box – oh, and integrate a ‘subscribe to comments on this post via email’ box – and it will be perfect. The immediacy of posting and commenting really appeals – although as someone pointed out on the WordPress site, we’re only really dressing up what IRC could do 20 years ago… :)

  3. It’s certainly more simplistic than the previous theme, but there’s nothing wrong with that!
