The first combatant in the battle of the browsers is the champion of the Open Web, Mozilla Firefox. For many of us, Firefox was our first step away from the tyranny of the big blue E.

New series: Browser Smackdown
Like many designers and developers (I’m sure), I’ve found myself stuck in a browser rut. Every time I find a new one, I’m always super excited about the different features and quirks they offer but, at the end of the day, I still rely on Chrome as my window to the web world.
No more! Beginning today, for the sake of science and personal growth, I shall a different browser each week, all week, pitting big and small against each other in a battle royale I can only refer to as Browser Smackdown!
Gearing Up For the Push
Hello friends.
You may have noticed a new theme on keithshelley.net. Yes, it’s pretty. Yes, it’s simple. No, sadly it’s not mine.
This lovely theme is called Simone and it’s by one of my WordPress heroes, Morten Rand-Hendriksen. It’s built on the _S theme and it’s just what I need right now. So, why the switch at all?
Dance Lincoln: A New Website
I’ve been working on a website for a very important client.
Dance Lincoln is the newest, greatest thing to happen to the dance scene in Lincoln, NE since, well, EVAR.
Your lovely, talented, impossibly patient instructor, Tiara, has a plan to freshen up dancing in Lincoln by offering classes and social events geared toward usability. Instead of focusing on the minutiae of stodgy dances from the Elizabethan era, Tiara has chosen to specialize in modern, living, breathing social dances you can actually use in any occasion.
A brief revelation
I had a revelation just now about music that was so simple, so fundamental, that I can’t believe I hadn’t thought of it before. It’s about heavy metal guitar solos.
