I reworked the shiftMode sidebar, adding a picture of moi, and a zoomcloud to provide another way to browse content. I’ve always cringed at the idea of adding a picture of myself. It strikes me as such a vain thing to do. I finally caved on this as I’ve come to realize that I want to know as soon as I browse to a page whether or not it’s written by an individual, a group of people, or a company. The fastest way to convey that a site belongs to an individual is to add a picture of yourself to the main page.

I apologize for putting you through the agony of seeing my mug but I swear, it’s just so new visitors know that this is just me not some shiftMode Inc.
