Actually no, I'm not going to build an entire fuckin replicate of the
Flash version (are you fucking stupid), it'll be a very simple plain
text version that'll just cover the basic explanation of the services
along with contact information along with an RSS XML file that'll
describe the content of the site (for future search engines).

That won't be on the new version...especially since the cell phone and
Critical Thinking book have already been sold. I normally list stuff
like that on Amazon.com now so I have no use for it on the BW site. I
do plan on selling some "Mad Hatter/tech culture" esque merchandise
though at some point. The big thing though is the video codec, which
will likely be finished in a year or so. I need to get a lot of
"house cleaning" stuff done before then though...especially since at
the moment of its release I'll suddenly be thrown into uber level
net.celebritism status.
In the immediate time being it'll mostly be the same content wise,
except for an updated list of sites along with descriptions of them
and information on when each was last updated. The AMV downloads
section will also be completely redone. You'll be able to watch the
videos directly in the site as well as download them and most of them
will be updated...like the "Twist Of" AMV, I just noticed the version
I currently have up is the craptastic uber beta version of the
video...which isn't so good cause I believe the music/action synch at
the end is all frelled up on that version.
The descriptions and examples for the services will also be uber
beefed up. Like for web design I'm gonna break it apart into
sections.
Pick a color scheme - like say forrest green and tan
Pick a style - like the new BW site uses smooth metal and glass styles
Other styles include plastic, metal (smooth, rusted, brushed), wood,
paper, rock, fire, liquid, fire, sand, etc.
And then lastly choose a specific theme (like 50s, western, tree
hugger, industrial, etc) or pick out specific design techniques - like
indents, cutouts, beveling, page peels, pipes, dashboard windows,
wires, floating overlays (solid or transparent), techie hoohas, etc.
And then it'll have picture examples of the different styles and
design techniques so you can really get a clear idea about what you
want. The one thing I can't stand is clients who don't know what they
want and I frequently turn down those clients because if they don't
know what they want I sure as hell don't know what they want. Clients
like that are the worst to deal with and they're usually never
satisified with anything and you wind up creating mockup after mockup
after mockup and do nothing but waste your time...kinda like the Avon
Lady who winds up at the house of some leaching bitch who pretends
she's interested in buying something when really she just wants to try
out the free makeup and has no intention of buying anything..
