Why the Blog is the Home Page
I have had a few people ask me recently, “Why is your blog the home page?” Well, several reasons really. First of all, it was too easy to not write something before I put the blog on my home page. Now, every time I go to the site, I am reminded that I have some writing to think about and a contribution to create.
Writing this blog is both a means of recording some work ideas and of showing the personality of The Design Mission. Work is much more than a job to me. Creating websites that make a difference in the world is the real goal here, and by highlighting issues important to me, I get that message across in other ways.
Finally, I have really come to understand that my work speaks for itself. I have more jobs than I can handle, and am happy with the clients I have kept along the way. Blogging allows for me to express opinions, present new ideas, and get things clearly defined for myself, simply by putting them in writing.
The blog has become the main focus of the website, it needs to be the home page.
