As you may have noticed, I’ve done some further work towards customizing my layout. See esp: new navigation on right sidebar. How do you think it looks? Does the script work correctly in your browser? (I’d be especially interested in Safari or Mac IE, as I have access to neither.) It’s supposed to be a list of expanding menus that drop down when you click on them.
Also! I finally got the site to validate for CSS and XHTML. Yay! That was a bit of a headache, chasing down those little problems and their nit-picky solutions, but all in all it feels good to have a ‘validated’ site. 
I don’t have much else to say, mainly due to the fact that I enjoyed approximately THREE hours of sleep last night. =-o I did, however, turn in a satisfactory first draft. But I do not have the energy for a longer, more interesting post tonight. Sorry.
Oh, Lost is new tomorrow! Boo ya!

The dropdowns are very cool — I’ll have to work on something like that for myself. I’ve added you to my RSS feeds and will be keeping up! Thanks for your comments and flickr feedback.

Thank you very much! I’m glad you like the new navigation, and I also very much appreciate the ’subscription’. It’s nice to know someone is actually reading.

/me thinks that you should spend time getting the content in your main pages up rather than playing with CSS/Javascript run secondary navigation menus
by the way, I just noticed this for some reason for the first time. Check out this hot commenting form (scroll to the bottom): http://www.airbagindustries.com/archives/008768.php#comments
not surprising as it comes from AirBag, but I still love it. Who does the three main fields in a blog comment field on one line? no one, that’s why it rocks.

Haha, you are totally right, Phil. But you know how it is… I got this crazy idea for what I wanted to do with the navigation, and it wouldn’t go away until I dealt with it. So when I had a few minutes yesterday I decided to see what I could do.
Next time I have to devote to the site, though, will indeed be given to the main content pages.
And that comment form is cool!

Nice menu! I like the drop down thing you have going. You should check out moo.fx … I’m currently learning javascript, and hopefully I’ll get into AJAX …

that’s pretty cool Shirmp - good site link
AJAX is definitely a tight grouping of technologies! I’m planning on using it for some projects at some point. Especially since it’s a buzzword right now and I’ll probably run into people who want it simple because it’s the big thing (that and Ruby on Rails)
that is a nice inovative design!
(just be aware of accessibility: broken back button being one)
