My New Homepage Ate My Blogger Design. Sort of.
marccsantos.com got a new look today. I wanted something minimalist and clean before I head out on the job market. The design corresponds to the visual design of my other job materials (CV, cover letter, dissertation summary). The face-lift isn’t … Continue reading

A new home (page)
Here a screen shot of the rough draft: I’m looking for something bright with a textured background. I’ve been working for about three hours, we’ll see how I feel about it in the morning. Decision to sleep on: whether the … Continue reading
