Bits and pieces
What’s that image right there on the left? Well I’m happy to say that’s a little preview of the new design I’m working on for this blog. I’ve been growing increasingly tired of the current design, which is partly why I haven’t posted a whole lot lately. And this time I have decided to take a big step, and completely redo the entire blog.
Once I finish up the design, I’m going to find someone who can code the design for me from scratch, so that I can get it looking exactly like I imagine it. With this design also comes a signficant shift in focus at this blog. Instead of being a half-assed attempt at covering a specific niche, which I admittedly don’t want to write about at the moment, I am going to cover a brand new niche; me!
Profound, I know. But to elaborate, I have decided that, since this blog has my name attatched to it after all, I will try to make it reflect my online persona. The blog part will be expanded to the extent that I can write about pretty much everything I feel like talking about. With the new design I will also try to aggregate some of my “off-blog” activities online as well as I can.
All of this will hopefully make it really easy for me to answer a single question: “Who are you?” - “Just take a look at my blog, Lars-Christian.com to see what I’m all about“.
Understandably this will most likely result in those 100 something people currently subscribing to my blog hitting the unsubscribe button, but to be honest, I don’t care. I won’t maintain this blog to make a profit, or gain as many subscribers as possible. Instead I’ll be doing it mostly for fun and relief. It’s nice to have somewhere to vent your thoughts, I think, and that’s what I’ll do.
Don’t get me wrong though, I won’t just be posting pictures of my cats and dogs (I don’t have any cats or dogs, nor do I want any of them!), and I’ll probably still be offering my unique insight on everything online business, marketing and so forth. I just won’t be tied down to that topic exclusively.
We’ll see how it all works out eventually. I’m kinda excited to get the new design up and start playing with my online persona again!

Wise decision. As you can probably tell from my new URL.
Waiting for the redesign. Maybe you can make this theme public?

Nice new blog Vijay! Hadn’t seen it before.
And yeah, if anybody actually wants me to put it out there, that shouldn’t be a problem at all. I don’t think I feel like cleaning it up though, and making it “optimal” for a released theme. People would have to do that themselves.

I like the current look and feel of your site. You’ve made some really good color choices and aeshetic decisions. I’m pretty sure your new theme will long quite gorgeous as well.
