More websites…. I’m on a roll….

Like I said in my last post, I’ve been trying to keep myself busy.
This time, it is a website to highlight student life and student work at the Tata-Dhan Academy. What can I say? When the students don’t try to test my skills at detecting plagiarism, I actually enjoy a lot of the work and [...]

2657 Productions is going to get a facelift

I’ve been trying to keep myself busy recently.
As I mentioned in my earlier post about the DAMN It! website, one of the reasons I did it was to experiment with some layout stuff. This then translated into me exploring WordPress Themes, using the Sandbox theme as my foundation.
There is still a bit of tweaking that [...]

DAMN It!

I was just having some fun at work a couple of weeks ago, trying to put some positive and creative pressure on a co-worker, so I created this fake center to compete with the center she is heading (the Advanced Centre for Enabling Disaster Risk Reduction [at the Tata-Dhan Academy where I work]). The result? [...]

Nested Lists and CSS

I don’t use lists too often for my own stuff, but I do have to use them often either with my work or with school assignments. Often these lists can be quite long, and have many lists nested within each other.
I was recently converting an outline from a Word document to an HTML document, and [...]

Thanksgiving Turkey, Treadmills, and Tamilnadu

While Amy and I were at the TATA-Dhan Academy wandering around, we ran across this wild turkey. Yummy. But they are all veg people at the academy…. Oh well….
So, it has been a pretty busy month for me, and as such I haven’t really written much here. I just finished another class (Integrating Educational Technology [...]

New (old) Pictures

Wow. Posting three days in a row? Don’t expect it to become a regular feature….
I’ve recently added a few galleries to photos.mrdwab.com, so be sure to check them out at some point.

Exciting day!

Amy has decided to join me in my online adventures by setting up a website on my site! It’s work related, and she refuses to write anything about herself on there, but I guess that’s fine—everyone will just have to learn about how cool she is through her work instead.
Anyway, setting up the page was [...]

“Las Historias de Ladera” re-design

New projects to keep me busy—more adventures into CSS. Yes, I’m busy procrastinating and doing geeky stuff to keep myself entertained in the interim. So, what do I do? Try something new… -ish….

So, for the project of killing time at hand, I decided to re-do the “Las Historias de Ladera” site that I did some [...]

Slow news month….

Man, where has September gone? I don’t quite know what happened this month, but it certainly flew by.
Well, a lot has actually happened. For starters, I turned 28 towards the beginning of the month—and Amy and I got to celebrate our four-year wedding-proposal anniversary. My website design for the Centre for Micro Finance where I [...]

Art! Look at all the pretty colors….

Google now lets you embed a gallery into your blogposts!

Sort of…. I was hoping for something more in the way of a mini-gallery that can show up, but instead, it just shows the front cover of the photo gallery as a link to the public gallery at picasa.google.com which, in turn, is part of the [...]
