Losing My Religion
So, while the new site design was a great exercise in procrastination, it violates everything I hold near and dear regarding UI (user interface) design. Interfaces (even non-interactive like a simple web page) should be simple and intuitive. Greg also brings up a good point about the browser issue. Though it's certainly within my right to force a specific browser down someone's throat, it's just not smart when the market reality doesn't support it. While I'm not running a business (no ads ever on RCS!), I need to practice what I preach. Even though I personally advocate the use of Opera and Firefox, I should design my page so it can be enjoyed (ok, I'm being pretentious here) by anyone with any browser. Ahh, a new marketing slogan: "Raincitystory.com. The first corss-platform blog."
Hence, this gaudy design will be replaced in the next few days with something simpler. Stay tuned.

After what I said, I downloaded Opera and am now enjoying your site fully.
Lunch this week? Email me…

I like getting a history lesson when I read your blog. Very interesting reading about Antoni Gaudà i Cornet. Thanks for fixing my browser.
Love, Ma
