Shift8 Creative Graphic Design and Website Development

I really need to update my website. First, my portfolio section is way dated. I want to add reference to at least one more major website that I got the opportunity to work on while at ExpandTheRoom, but I also have a few other person projects I'd like to list under that section as well. I'm still trying to figure out how to best list all of my open-source contributions too. I may change up the "portfolio" and "projects" section... 

Aside from all that, I want to be more active in posting blog entries (which I always say) and I want to bring in my Twitter feed since I usually post some great links there. Also, I've been struck by the creativity bug and I just want to put more effort into design. I really have a minimalistic design here that I'm not happy with. The new expriments with web typography that I've been playing with can really help me out.

I've been using Croogo, which is a really, really good blog/CMS for CakePHP. However, lately I've been working with the Lithium framework. In fact, so much that I'm really getting out of touch with CakePHP. So it really makes sense to move my site onto Lithium...Likely, the Minerva CMS I've been working on.

I may also setup a Q&A type section as well...Specifically with regard to the Lithium framework (but open to all areas of the web that I may be privy to). I don't want to have some sort of open Q&A site, but I do want to provide more insightful blog posts in the form of a "Q&A" for the little niche of the internet I find myself in. Kinda like some of the tips/tutorials that you can find throughout my blog, but now with a little more organization/emphasis.

I've left my full-time job and have gone off on my "own" (working with some good people), so I'm a free man! I'm on the loose and I'm dangerous. So stay tuned for some updates!
