What urges people to follow a blogosphere meme? Individuals, who registered a domain name and set up a website to have a place they call their own (web-wise) simply add their efforts to a rush of lemmings redesigning with concordance to an other person’s timeline. Is this marketing? Pride? Sports? Peer pressure?

As for why I’m redesigning, I do tweak here and there as I notice things, but I’ve been redesigning Futurosity every three to six months since I began using it for a blog (instead of just a static business brochure, which is what you would have seen here for several years). I redesign for two reasons: 1) I like learning about web design, and 2) it’s fun. CSSReboot seems like a fun idea; it gives me a deadline, it has exposed me to some sites I wouldn’t have found otherwise, and it has already brought some traffic to my site.<br /> <br /> So, not pride, not sports (I can’t compete with the real designers out there), not pressure. Fun. Have a look. You might find some new sites you’d like. Thanks for the complements on my site.

I was so busy with some consulting work, writing for Macworld and worrying about my novel for NaNoWriMo that I haven’t had any time to work on the site. Next year. I had to bail out of CSS Reboot.
