Hello World!

Newly launched and with a promise of a better tomorrow, here is my web development blog, 90 Percent Gravity. Some of the new features currently implemented here are:

• New host, now running on the much more reliable Slicehost , compared to the crappy old mishap of running a rails app on dreamhost
• New cms, now powered by Simplelog, a much lighter and easier to configure and hax0r away on then the hunky chunky behemoth that is typo. A strong thank you goes out to John Nunemaker, who helped me with a strange theme issue which was impending my launch, in addition to the already vast amounts of wisdom and assistance he gives me on a regular basis.
• New site logo, created by the wonderful and recently birthday’d Tim O’Connor. He was kind enough to point out that I desperately needed one and then take it upon himself to make it.
• New layout design, once again designed by the happily married Tim O’Connor, with tiny elements by me, and then coded in XHTML and CSS by me again. This design is tighttt and I owe Tim several more high fives and cases of beer for it.
• New focus, to be employed by me for the life of this blog. Tho I will find each entry personal in that it comes from my voice and is written in my words, this blog is now the official web development blog of William H. Harle Jr. I’ve been into standards-based web development for two and a half years now, developing applications for the better part of the last 15 months, with a great focus on Ruby on Rails most recently. I learn new things everyday and I need somewhere to share my views, expertise, idiocy, and love for web development. That is what this site is for.

This blog is agile. It will continue to grow as needed. Sign up for my RSS, and get ready for some discussion. Here goes.
