Well, I am done with the redesign of jackassletters.com. For the most part I am happy with the site. There’s still a lot of work to do, but the look is there and I’ve done the majority of the backend work. I think my to do list still has like 40 items on it, but none of them kept me from launching. Once I am done with that site I intend to redo this one. Redo and refocus. I also intend to simplify. This is the tutorial I plan to follow. I now own two licenses of ExpressionEngine. One is currently running jackassletters.com and the other is running nothing. It doesn’t really matter as to the why’s and such, but I plan to turn christopher.jorgensen.name into a site with only bibliographical information and links to current projects on it.

christopher.jorgensen.name will be on the Freelancer license, thisflapfirst.com will probably become a publishing/craft site using mojomotor, fervorflower.com is static, socialmediamonkey.com will be run on EE 1.6.9 core, and jackassletters.com will be run on the non-commercial license of EE. So lots to be done yet.
