I think it looks nice! I'm a fan of the colors, and the graphics are a nice touch.

I second that. The sidebar is well designed too. Looks good on both desktop and mobile.

What do you guys prefer, a wysiwyg editor or a simple text editor for html? I found a real old copy of Dreamweaver (CS3) and it works great, frankly, but it's a bit dated—it doesn't support HTML5. but I'm too lazy to edit everything by hand. hmmmm

I personally use Bluefish.

I usually write the raw HTML in a text file or directly into the Neocities editor. Nice and old school. Haha!

I usually use a text editor, but my site is mostly incredible simple, early 90's pre-GeoCities type stuff.

I use Atom for writing HTML, as well as any plain text stuff like notes. I think this is probably a type of text editor overkill, but it's just so snazzy.

I only use Notepad++, and everything on my site is HTML or CSS. A classic gripe against wysiwyg editors is that they require you to give up some control over the logical organization of your site, even if they do make it easier to quickly shape up its appearance. Personally, I just like understanding (pretty much) every line of code that makes up my site, and don't want a wysiwyg editor to add anything.

I use my typewriter to do it all in html and then use image capture scanning software to have it converted to a text file, but some call me old fashioned like that.

I have a second version of Elaboraet running on elaboraet.com. I'm still working on it, but things are looking good so far.

Indeed! Lookin' spiffy. ;-)

I loved your little narrative on watches. Sometimes I cringe at my peers throwing around their smartwatches like they're made of nothing: they're just a total redundancy to their phones, anyway (they won't admit that, though).

Thank you! It is really nice to know that you liked it. Yes people do get wrapped up in tech sometimes, when the relationships that technology helps us cultivate are the important things. In real life my grandpa is a very bad tipper and wears a Timex.

Definitely. I forgot to add that I own a single mechanical watch, maybe from the 60s, but can absolutely relate to much of what you wrote.
