Colophon

This site was built with Textpattern and a couple sleepless nights. The blog posts are written in MarsEdit, and the design is coded in TextMate. The site looks awesome in Safari, and probably acceptable in any other browser (but really, who cares?)

It’s got gridlines, vertical rhythms, and Helvetica. Plus, it positively reeks of pretentiousness. Not as much pretentiousness as I first wanted, but enough, I guess.

For the grid, I used the 960 Grid System. For the vertical rhythm, I used the Baseline Rhythm Calculator. For the Helvetica, I used Helvetica.

Fine then, technically I use this stuff in the CSS:

font-family: Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, "FreeSans", sans-serif;

For all you heathens with your Helvetica–less computers will all be served whatever your cretinous computers show. But you can’t have a pretentious website without Helvetica. It’s in the rules, or something I think.

Regardless, the site is pretty simple, and I like it that way.
