New Sidebar Features

I've added two kinda neat things to my sidebar: "Current Research Topic" and "Currently Reading". So if for whatever reason you're wondering what philosophical issues I happen to be thinking about on any given day, or what book I have in progress, my sidebar's a good place to look.

I'm trying to figure out a way to get the updates there to show up in my twitter feed, but that is proving less than trivial. I've given up for the moment, but maybe I'll try again later.

Site update

I finally got around to changing some things around on this site; I'm no longer embarrassed by it, although it still needs work. Let me know if you see anything wrong, or if you have suggestions for content/design/whatever.

Blog up and running (I hope)

Sorry for all the technical difficulties in the past week. It now appears that my blog works. I'm still hoping to import my posts from my old blog, but, I'm sorry to say, I'm becoming decreasingly optimistic. We'll see. Expect things to shift around here quite a bit over the next few weeks; my coding skills are mediocre at best, so there's a bit of trial and error involved, but I sort of have an idea now how I'll set things up around here.
