The neat thing about blogging design?
29/5/2009 | external link
…is that if you don’t like the theme you picked yesterday you can change it with a click of the mouse today. This is NOT my new design. It’s yet another way I can mess with the “brand” I’ve built. I want to destroy it, to allow me to play around and find something fresh. [...]
Exploring the 2010 Web
29/5/2009 | external link
To build something new you have to destroy what you were doing before. That’s one thing that not enough of us do. Las Vegas does that. They tear down one of their favorite old casinos to make way for something new. That’s what I had to do to my blog. For the past year it felt [...]

Can we just head this trend off at the pass? It seems that Kara Swisher and Walt Mossberg, at their “All Things D” conference announced the beginning of the Web 3.0 era. That’s ridiculous.
