The New BlakeSunshine.com!

by Blake Sunshine on March 7, 2010

In case you haven’t already noticed, things are looking a little different around here today! A few months ago I realized that my blog needed a serious update, and now it looks and feel a lot more “me” than before.

Of course I didn’t do any of the design work myself, and I owe a huge, huge thank you to Matt Cheuvront for his great work on my blog. If you need any design work done you should seriously check out his site MattChevy.com and his blog LifeWithoutPants.com and hire him immediately. I know there are hundreds of thousands of web gurus out there, but if you want someone who isn’t pretentious about design and will really listen to what you want then Matt is definitely your guy. Before I started the process of working with him I didn’t even know what I wanted, but he listened to all of the crazy crap that I told him I liked and he somehow came up with the perfect design. Matt was also really nice to me and didn’t tell me I was crazy. And that in and of itself is reason enough for you to hire him.

But seriously, welcome to the new and improved BlakeSunshine.com! If you read my blog in a RSS reader or e-mail, hop on over to the site and check out the new design.

Some things you may find helpful about the new site:
1. The font is 1 million times easier to read.
2. The navigation is now categorized by the most popular things I write about. If you only come to my site to read about public relations than just hop on over to that page.
3. You don’t have to stare at my face on the front page anymore (Apparently some people really liked seeing my face everyday. If you are one of those people, send me an email and I will send you a picture of myself everyday).

If this is your first time visiting my site, please head on over to the About Me page and see what I’m all about. If you are a regular around here, thanks for continuing to come back and read my blog. I appreciate you more than you know. Please take a look around my blog and let me know what you think. All feedback is welcomed!

I will have lots of great posts from SXSW Interactive coming next week, so I hope you will all stick around for a while. Yay for the new BlakeSunshine.com!

The Seventh Inning Stretch

March 1, 2010

Tomorrow marks the end of month number seven since I moved to Austin and started my job at National Instruments. It feels good to have made it this far, especially because I doubted my ability to live here in Austin without all of my college friends. But things are coming along, and the past seven [...]

Millennials are not good at waiting

January 18, 2010

Rudyard Kipling knows exactly how I’ve been feeling lately. “If you can wait and not be tired by waiting…” But I know I am not the only one who is tired of waiting. Morgan is about to become my first friend to have a baby. Morgan’s baby doesn’t know this, but it is about to [...]
