I've finally gotten around to picking up a copy of The Mythical Man Month, a collection of essays on software engineering written by Frederick Brooks which was originally published in 1975. While the majority of the book has stood the test of time remarkably well, Chapter 3, entitled "The Surgical Team," especially intrigued me.
I have spent the last few days redesigning my personal blog from scratch with a totally new look and feel. The motivation for this came from multiple sources, including the desire to practice my design skills by creating something new (which was not fully satiated by designing my new mini-site recently).
All work is original and copyright 2013 by Ash White, with the exception of a handful of free third-party libraries, including the Scriptaculous JavaScript framework, Lightbox image overlay, Google Font Directory, Google Code Prettify, and Eric Meyer's CSS Reset.
