Another happy customer!

April 30th, 2010

Okay so not really a customer, and not really happy, but certainly a fan of my web design skills!

“Daniel Hertz designed CMW’s website, which even the group’s critics note is professional in appearance, certainly above average for a student group that only came into existence two semesters ago.”

RIM, you’re doing it wrong

April 29th, 2010

I came across a post on Techcrunch today regarding a sneak peak at RIM’s new Blackberry OS 6. Seeing as the Blackberry’s operating system hasn’t actually changed in the past few years, I was kind of excited. Maybe I would switch back once again to a Blackberry and return to the glorious days of obnoxiously pinging my friends.

Coming Now: My New Website!

You don’t get to constantly see a picture of me when you spend your entire day on my site. The positives? You get a much more fluid and easier-to-read version of my site. Let me know what ya think!

Coming Soon: My New Website!

April 12th, 2010

So I began my switch from prototype to jQuery several weeks ago, and it has been awesome. I have already made some pretty neat pages with it and some cool new features I learned have inspired me to revamp my current website. Soooooo, I am in the process of designing and coding a new site that is radically different from the current version. My new site will focus around social media and my hobbies, including facebook, twitter, and flickr. I am working with all three of these API’s and plan on making, what I think, is a very new and unique browsing experience. I don’t wanna give too much away right now, but Ill post a draft mock-up of the new homepage. I’ll post some progress of my work as I get things done, so keep checking me feeds.
