What the heck is going on, you ask? Say hello to Tersus.

Bare bones? You got it. Tersus is an achingly simple WordPress theme without all the usual cruft.

SiteSprint — A launch in progress.

Well, I didn’t get every­thing imple­mented yet, but I at least wanted to get the home­page live by today. I had hoped to have more done by now but with every­thing I’ve got going on it just wasn’t going to hap­pen. There is still a lot of cleanup work that still needs to be done. It prob­a­bly won’t be com­pleted until the week­end, but I’ve at least made most areas of the site some­what usable. I’ll have a more thor­ough post detail­ing my approach avail­able in the next few days.

Right now, the most press­ing issue is get­ting com­ments cleaned up. After that, it’ll just be a mat­ter of going in and adding details, sim­pli­fy­ing where it makes sense, etc.

Me and my site have needed a kick in the ass for some time. The Site Sprint was just the excuse I needed to work on it. I can’t thank my friends Bryan Veloso and Greg New­man for encour­ag­ing this idea. I’ve also got to thank Anton Peck, Kyle Fox and so many oth­ers for being so inspi­ra­tional with their own sprint attempts. Being able to chat with and col­lab­o­rate with such amaz­ing tal­ent made this whole expe­ri­ence epic. We’ll def­i­nitely do this again, though the idea of try­ing to reboot a per­sonal project within a month again seems a bit insane at this point.

    Con­grats! I wasn’t plan­ning on com­plet­ing a site sprint but just started work­ing on a redesign/redvelopment of my domain today. Hope to have some­thing to show for it shortly.

    Hi. Just stop­ping by your blog to say hello. :D

    I found your blog on another site, and it looked very inter­est­ing. I’ve read a few posts and it’s held my atten­tion enough to sub­scribe to your feed. I’ll be read­ing daily. :D

    Thanks for hav­ing me, and I hope to see you drop by my bloggy if you have the time and/or inter­est. It would be great to have you. Have a great weekend.
