I began working in late 2007 on what was then called, Orsa Modus (Starting Plan). And, as with many things I dropped it for quite a while. From time to time I would tinker with the design. Finally, now, more than 6 months since I first started working on Orsa Modus it has now become Olympia. There’s still quite a bit that hasn’t been done. I’m pretty sure no one can even see this post because I haven’t set up an RSS feed for the site. I honestly can’t recall.

Of course, like a moth or hummingbird or child with ADHD I’m becoming distracted by something else. So, I’m not certain when I’ll finish the conversion of the site to Olympia. I would like to mention one facet of Olympia that I love the most. The entire design is written in ems. There is not a single dimension declared in pixels. Everything is done in ems. That’s been something of a design goal of mine for sometime. I also happen to think the text is better lain out in this design than in anything else I’ve ever done and I can’t imagine ever rewriting the text styling again. I expect I’ll use olympia_text.css for a very long time.

I will get around to fixing things in time. I don’t give deadlines anymore cause I just miss them. Thanks for stopping by, I’m completely amazed you did.
