CSS Mosaic Snapshot

July 23, 2004

CSS MosaicJust noticed that this site was fea­tured on Doug Bowman’s CSS Mosaic, a snap­shot of 144 CSS web designs used in a pre­sen­ta­tion by Doug Bow­man at Dig­i­tal Design World, Seat­tle, in July 2004. The list was com­piled from entries fea­tured at the CSS Vault from the last 4 months.

I’m hon­ored to have been fea­tured among these great designs and thank my sup­port­ers and read­ers of this site, in addi­tion to Paul Scrivens and Doug Bow­man for fea­tur­ing this site in their presentations.

It’s been a great year and I look for­ward to what the future will bring.

Con­grat­u­la­tions Erik! I think this is a won­der­ful site. It’s been one of my favorite designs in the vault since I dis­cov­ered it, but I also think that it deserves a spe­cial men­tion for the great con­tent. Shouldn’t there be a vault for that? Keep up the good work.

P.S. Have I men­tioned how cool it is that your Dad posts on here?

Thanks Greg, for your kind words and of course flat­ter­ing com­pli­ments. I try to keep the con­tent fresh and dif­fer­ent, but at the same time refrain from being too sporadic.

It is cool that my Dad posts here and really he’s been a strong sup­porter of all of my projects in life. He was here before this blog was men­tioned on CSS­Vault and other media, and he’ll still be here if for some rea­son my audi­ence disappates.

I never expected to have 2 read­ers, let alone a hand­ful, even if a few of them pop in from time to time. I’ve always used the anal­ogy that my site is like a Mom and Pop store, reg­u­lar and semi-regular vis­i­tors who drop in for a visit.

Yes Erik, con­grats on being listed in the Vault. You’re in some great com­pany in there. Here’s to many more years.

A well-deserved con­grats! There are so many things that are excel­lent on your site, and your atten­tion to detail is superb.

I think it’s cool that your dad posts here too. My mom posts at my blog occa­sion­ally, but she says really goofy stuff. She’s still new to the web. :)

I agree with Greg, the con­tent is fan­tas­tic too, espe­cially love your retro gam­ing posts. Brings back nos­tal­gic mem­o­ries, and I had to rein­stall some old games off of dusty floppies.

Con­grat­u­la­tions on the men­tion. I am still knocked out that you have a link to my hum­ble blog so thanks again. Vote Kar­tooner for Guru :)

Again, thank you all for com­ments. What’s most impor­tant for sites (or blogs) is the com­mu­nity sup­port of your read­ers, even if that means your neigh­bor down the street who tunes in once a week, or your co-worker who chimes in every once in a blue moon.

Also, Root, thanks for the Guru vote. I’m far from con­sid­er­ing myself that at all, but appre­ci­ate the sen­ti­ment. Mainly because I don’t believe any­one is a guru at what they do, instead I believe with enough col­lab­o­ra­tion we can all learn from eachother and learn­ing con­stantly refines our skills.
