My new Web site continues to come together, and its extensibility was proven today, as I seamlessly added a new writing portfolio to the site. This is a tremendous improvement over my old writing portfolio, which was just a bunch of static HTML pages that were nearly impossible to manage. And forget changing the design.
This is one of the many reasons I’m so psyched to have my whole site being delivered dynamically: I can now manage content and design easily and independently across the board (one design “switch” filters down through everything). I even have full control over the various attributes of my writing samples (title, subhead, bylines, publication, etc.). Ahh, the beauty of creating and managing my own database and content.
