I switched theme today, moving to my own theme Mumrik from bloggingpros wordpress theme. It should be a little cleaner and hopefully easier to read and navigate. Once I have sorted out all the kinks I will release it for download.

logotype design help needed for 3 websites
I am in the middle of redesigning/designing/coding 3 websites, 2 new and one old. I need to work on the graphical profile on all of these websites. If you are interested in creating the graphical profile for 3 webs and can give an estimate on what the cost would be for the work to be done, please contact me. The sites could be categorized as follow:
- Personal blog on Internet related stuff
- Brand with no meaning (yet), will focus on lifestyle
- Brand with a focus on exchanging services between different job-types
Leave a comment and I will contact you via mail if you are interested and could give an estimate on the cost and links to previous work.

New WordPress Theme for the Redesign of The Interaction Design Blog
I am redesigning The Interaction Design Blog with my own theme (named Mumrik after my black cool cat). I will make the theme available for others to download. My goals with the theme is:

- Make the blog easier to navigate and read
- Remove unecessary information
- Learn the WordPress theme engine
- Make it easier to add images and movies
- Make good use of jquery
Feel free to comment on the first draft of the design.

jQuery just got 800% faster
Today jquery just got 800% faster. Not bad for a decimal-release. Only one release more will be made on the 1.1 code base.
With this speed increase I think jquery just won the library-war, a measure of its success is the number of diggs it has generated the last 9 hours, approx 1000 and growing.
Good work John and team!
5 Must Install Facebook Applications
Facebook recently (re)launched Facebook Platform, realizing what drives this kind of services is unknown, and by exposing apis to its users enabling the platform they are offering to grow in an uncontrolled and positive manner.
