Hypercrit 6.5 is coming
If anyone would like to take a look, you can check out the demo of my new site design. It's content-centric and very much a work in progress. It's probably about two weeks away from going live at this URL.
I welcome your comments, critiques and suggestions, of course.
And yes, I know this is the second redesign in recent memory, but the point of this redesign is to get the look of Hypercrit away from the Nieman Journalism Lab's site, which inspired me to adopt the current look -- plus it was a challenge to see if I could code something that looked that neat by hand. (I did. It wasn't easy, but it was rewarding.)
So again, I welcome your comments on the new design. Go ahead and leave them here on this post, if you please.
