I promised Mr. Fooh Ling to elaborate on how I feel about books, due to a comment in an earlier entry where I revealed unknown truths about myself. Books are small creatures looking for a home and someone to care for them. In many cases, they are jewels so precious, they take your breath away. That probably sums up what I feel. Maybe that is why I have so many on my shelves and overflowing into boxes and stacks on the floor, complicating the rare vacuum cleaner excursions through the house. They all needed a home, and I was willing to give them one. On my bookshelf, there is a Danish book written in 1922 by Knud Poulsen called Breve fra Danmark.

2 CommentsI finally did my WordPress 2.3.1 upgrade today and changed my theme at the same time. I waved goodbye to the nice Ocadia theme from Beccary, which has served me well for nearly a year.

It’s not surprising that the theme has a lot of rich detail and potential when it comes from a talented guy like Mike. He’s one of the team over at Accessites.org, the site that showcases and promotes accessible web design. They might just have the resources and inspiration you need.
