Sneak peek: Upcoming thomasmaier.me redesign


I’m redesigning my website. Actually I am on it right now in Photoshop.

My website is pretty nice at it is now. It’s also very successful. But my goal now is to improve it even more. I’m working on it since two weeks. And if you’ve seen the WWDC 2010 keynote of Steve Jobs with the new iPhone 4, you see, that you can improve devices, which are already far ahead, even more. That’s my goal, too. I want to make it look more realistic, put more information in it by decreasing the complexity at the same time. It is going to be optimized for widescreen displays, multi-touch and will use new HTML5 and CSS3 techniques. I will also split blog and portfolio into two parts so you can focus on both of them much better. I’m really ambitious with it. Hope you’ll like it. The following images are sneak peeks and maybe they will not represent the final appearance but the state as it is now:

Introducing Flattr to my website


May 18th, 2010 in Me, News |


Flattr is a new and very interesting way to donate 2 Euros a month to various blogs and stuff like that. It let’s you spend 2 Euros a month without any cost traps or hidden rip-off. And nevertheless, every blog you found worth reading, listening to (or whatever you consumed), gets credit for the effort.
It won’t kill the “no-cost culture” on the internet, but it’s a nice platform worth trying. But this is a different discussion anyway in which I think that this culture is the basis of information culture which is far more democratic, open and decentralized as it could ever been without it.

On April 22nd something will be published
