There have been many wrong design decisions here at wordpress.com recently and I wrote about it a few times. First they brought us the horrible new editor that we can fortunately still bypass. Next they did negatively change the top bar to the point until it was unusable. I also mentioned more critique here and ranted about the changes quite often.

But at the end it doesn’t matter, because a domain renewal doesn’t cost … Continue reading The Dusty Tech Blog Domain
I just woke up in the middle of the night and I was unable to fall asleep again. That happens at times but I really dislike to stare at the ceiling for too long and decided to boot up my computer to use the time. I started Photoshop and picked one of Shyna’s photos to create something crazy. This time I decided to give one of her photos a pink touch.
