As spring creeps in once again, I decided it was time to do a home page refresh. JustinRussell.com has a brand new look for April, and it’s my favorite version of my home page to date.
It’s tough to believe, but this is the tenth version of my home page. The first public version came online in July 1999, a small site mostly focused around calculator programs for the TI-83. The web was different then, and for the past few years I’ve struggled to create a place online that ties together who I am and what I do.
My relatively short-lived latest version of justinrussell.com did a great job at listing the stuff I wrote around the web. It had its drawbacks, though; this blog and my photography sites were sort of disjointed from my home page. With the new version, I’ve set out to create a home page that I can show to someone as a representation of who I am.
Fair warning: I hope to post more on this blog from now on, and I’m guessing the posts will be on the long side. If you prefer something a little shorter, head on over to twitter.com/justinrussell. (I’ve found that writing makes me happy. I think I should do whatever I can to be happy this year, don’t you?)
