This screenshot catches a midway stage in the evolution of my personal blog, which I have run on a self-hosted custom WordPress install since 2006. I have ended up using the site as a showcase for extending WordPress with a variety of plugins as well as its obvious usage as a blogging platform for myself and co-authors.
This design was chosen because the typography and layout is especially accessible for readers with disabilities and was also an SEO-driven choice. The multimedia box and extensive customisation possibilities of the chosen Thesis theme were also a factor.
This is an extensively customised blog, with many interactive Web 2.0 features added to the standard blogging platform, without interfering with the aesthetics or performance.
I keep on finding new plugins and testing them, and tweaking the information architecture to make things more findable for search engines and readers
The site has now been ported to hoydenabouttown.com
