Some interesting and amazing results of these creations can be witnessed on their flickr site

So I found a Markdown plugin and I’m wanting to try it out and see how well it interprets Markdown formatting.

I’ll keep you posted if I come across any hitches.

In the meantime, enjoy a phrase from designer Paula Scher in her latest conference at TED.

The best way to accomplish serious design – which I think we all have the opportunity to do – is to be totally and completely unqualified for the job.

My TODOs for this week:

Example list of things to do:

  • Take my laundry to get done
  • Finish my ‘planes 2010′
  • Plan my next outing avec d’une jolie fille (?) :)

Also as far as housework, I need to:

  1. Clean my house
  2. Sleep earlier
  3. Stock up food pantry

As you can see, it’s not too bad. :)

I’ll have to work on fine-tuning it so that it reads flawlessly. More to come soon!

So as far as the ‘new host’ part of my title, I took advantage of a Thanksgiving Day special which they were holding over at globat.com I have now effectively changed hosts, and I definitely look forward to using up my 100GB of storage space in every possible experimentation that I can. :)

Well, after browsing through flickr, not only do I wanna post, but it also become a definite first place for searching for images… check it out
