Anunciado! New dirtyverbs.com coming…. al ratito…

I'm currently working on a complete redesign & reorganization of this website. Expect more content in an easier-to-read format, more visual art, ink scans, pdfs, podcast, etc. Gonna be good. Gonna take some time. At the moment, I'm working on organizing the archives. Take a look... writing & media from the last five years. Time flies frequently. I request the window seat. Hasta soon,

Website update

Hello internet world. Regular readers of the site will notice that I've tweaked a few things in the layout, especially in the sidebar on the left. I haven't been adding much writing lately, but I've done some major upgrades to the site in the background. I've finally upgraded to the latest version of WordPress, the open-source engine that runs this site. In doing so, I've been able to add some cool new features, including:

  • Archive! After close to three years, some of my older writing has gottten hard to find. So I created a neat-o archive page.
  • Subscribe! You can now subscribe to dirtyverbs.com, recieving an email every time I post new writing. Good for those with a seething internet addiction.
  • Fotos! I've taken about 1700 fotos this year alone. Finally I have a good quality gallery set up. The layout is still a bit rough, but the mechanics work. Check out new fotos (music and video too!) from Cuba, Guatemala, Cuernavaca, Spain, France, and more!

Still on the to-do list are a few major projects such as making the site 100% bilingual. Since I'm speaking mostly in Spanish these days, and my writing and reading have taken another major turn in that direction, it only makes sense. We'll see when I have enough time to dedicate to that... after learning how to be a elementary school teacher, professional translator, English tutor and getting my legal working visa.

Pronto me gustaría tener un sitio totalmente bilingüe. Hablo habitualmente en español y escribo mucho de México, y por eso todo debe estar en inglés y español a la vez. Este cambio será medio complicado, entonces lo haré cuando tengo suficiente tiempo libre... después de aprender como ser maestro de primaria, traductor professional, maestro particular de inglés y tener mi FM-3. Gracias por la paciencia.

So yes. Nerd time abounds this beautiful Saturday in central Mexico. More writing soon. I promise. I also want to thank John R. Kofonow again for continuing to generously host this site! You rock like igneous, buddy!

Dirtyverbs2005 Goes Live!

After weeks of learning PHP, Wordpress, CSS and XHTML, it has all come together! There still isn't too much content, I'll still be importing all of the poems & media from the old site, so if something doesn't work, check back later. What do you think?

Todo nuevo: new dirtyverbs march first

The website is going to go down within the next week to allow me to finish work on the new version. Grand opening: March 1st. I wholly afirm my grip on nerd-dom by having a grand opening for a website. Yes ma'am. I think there are actually going to be giveaways. Toothpicks and thongs? Maybe. Until then, don't forget to head over to NORAZpoets to figure out when you are going to see Suzy La Follette and Andrea Gibson while their Siren's Iris tour is in the area.

ALL NEW DIRTYVERBS

This is one ugly website!That's because I'm currently redesigning the whole thing, it might take awhile before it's all finished.

Until then, please check out the old site.
