I first bumped into this font used as a web typeface when I was studying CSS. It seems like the go to font of web standards geeks. I personally find it neat and very legible. But this font is for macs only… I’ll probably think of the rest of the world later. I also did some initial layout fixes by putting the content on the left and the sidebar to the right.
This site still needs a lot of work but I have to remember that this is an ongoing process. And I have to let go of the notion to work on stuff until its complete before showing it to the public. This is the first step of challenging myself and the process that I’ve gotten used to. On the other hand, who is reading this post anyway?
