I just launched a developer blog over at villagemind.com check it out for updates on some of the projects I am working on.

tinyCritic has just been launched to closed beta!

“tinyCritic was created for you to write and read concise reviews of media. We believe that reading many peoples’ condensed opinions can be more useful than reading a many page review by one person.

The philosophy behind tinyCritic is to keep the site as simple and concise as possible, just like the reviews you will find here.

Please keep in mind that tinyCritic is currently in a beta state and not fully released. If you find a bug or have a suggestion, please contact us.”

The new Decultured.com website has been launched and this blog is being retired. The news section on the new site replaces what used to be posted here, and I am in the process of migrating all of the content from this blog to the new system. For the time being I will be leaving this old wordpress system live, but will likely eventually redirect it to the new area.

The new page contains many useful features, such as a links area where I post in a mini-blog style format about interesting websites, videos and other content on the web, a gallery where you can view many photos from events I have attended, and the news section which serves as a general purpose blog.

All of the features on the new site are running under a custom made system that I wrote to better manage my content. It is written in ph with a mySQL back-end and should be pretty fast. I will be regularly adding new features and content to further enhance the site. Right now, the site is still mainly a personal site, and will be for the foreseeable future, but I will be adding quite a bit of general interest content in the links section and with other articles and features in the future.

You can access the new site at: http://www.decultured.com/

If you have any feedback on the new site, please leave a comment here.
