Hello Digital Friends!
You may have realized that things look a bit different around here. It may be a bit brighter, a bit more techy, a bit more flashy, but it’s still the same old us.
So why the redesign? It’s pretty simple: because everyone is on their phones all day!! And if you ever checked our site on mobile or tablet before, you know it looked pretty bootleg. So we got our friend Zach Doe to cook something up with mobile and tablet in mind. You won’t have to squint anymore (hopefully!) to read the text or have to flip your iPhone to read shit, it should all just resize for you, and work. I think it came out pretty well and hopefully you do too. Of course there’s tons of bugs and little problems with the site still, but those will be improved as soon as we get to them.
For now, we are taking off the rest of the day and going bowling. Yup – fuck it, gotta take some celebration time right?
Anyway, thanks for bearing with us, new content will be flowing soon (tomorrow) and the site shall continue to get better and better with your feedback and our experimentation.
Talk soon,
Jenkem
