SOME RANDOM DUDE

Well, this is it, the big 50. The Weekly Links have been going on for close to a year now and it has become one of my favorites pieces of this blog. Even though I am on vacation, I thought I would take the time to drop the links for you - albeit a bit late.

Nevertheless, please enjoy the links while I enjoy my vacation.

Enjoy the links.

Yeah, I know - I am WAY late on this week’s links. I was a little distracted with the events of the weekend and had limited access to the internet. I am back-dating this post nonetheless just for the sake of records. Every once in a while, this seems to occur - I try to keep it to a minimum, but life happens. The Nine Inch Nails viral campaign caught my attention (as well as many others) this week. You can check out all the websites put up under the Noteworthy Sites section.

Enjoy the links.

It is only about a year late, but I finally updated my portfolio which was in dire need of some renovation. The layout and content is much simpler now in my opinion and all new work has been put in. No more popups, no more waiting for all the content to load - just a clean, unobtrustive experience (in my opinion). I am also happy that arguably the most important sections of the site finally fits with the visual identity of Some Random Dude and has been brought up to the level it should have been.

It has been another amazingly long week and I have slightly fallen behind in my blogging this week. Nonetheless, through all the craziness, here are this week’s links. Things should begin to start slowing down this week or next which will allow me to spend more time doing some actual writing. Until then, get busy clicking with this batch of linkage.
