Preverhaul

Podcast 5 is out [if you downloaded it on Sunday and it was all messed up, try again. It's fixed now] and along with it some site development. The main thing is Podcast central, a whole new section devoted to the radio shows which now come with fully linked-up tracklistings. Can’t make out my mumblings? Check here and follow the links for more info. There’s also a comments facility should you want to, y’know, comment.

As threatened, the mp3 blog is no more. It’s still archived should you want to read what I wrote about what I posted, but the podcast is the medium for music communication from now on.

While I was at it I finally sorted out a design for the Linklog, adding pages that hold the last 500 links, 1000 links and finally all the links so if you kinda remember me linking to something a few months back you can use these pages to search.

I tried cramming the comments from all three sections onto one page but it just wasn’t having it , so it’s now a meta-department of its own: weblog comments, linklog comments and podcast comments. As before, this is all summarised on the main page, top right corner. (That said, I think I might just have figured out how to do it – we’ll see if I’m right…)

Sorting out these sub-sections of the peteashton experience is effectively foundation laying, or preparatory sketching, for the next big design overhaul sometime in the next few months. I’m trying out layout and navigation ideas (hence the inconsistencies, before you mention it) and while they’re definitely not quite there yet, something is emerging. It’s all still too blocky, I reckon, but I do like the way the sidebars are slotting in. That pleases me. Anyway, let me know what you think.
