You Never Know When You've Had a Good Day
Many years ago, when I had just started working at USV, I remember there was kind of a complicated situation that unfolded in a seemingly bad way, and I'll never forget what Brad said in response. He said:you never know when you've had a good dayI didn't really understand what that meant, so he told me a story that went something like: back around the year 2000 at the height of the dot-com boom, there was a guy who was a senior exec at a successful startup. That person had a falling out with ...

Over the past two years, I've redesigned this website about 5 times, but never finished. Talk about frustrating. Eventually, I realized that I was getting nowhere, and that instead of a redesign, what I really needed was an undesign. So that's what I did. Welcome to wrkng -1.0, my first undesign. Lately I've been getting the blogger's itch (is that like athlete's foot?), so this undesign is more blog-oriented. Maybe one day I'll get around to making an Actual Design, but I have a feeling this will suffice for a while. If you like it, you can download the Undesign Wordpress theme. As you can see it's pretty simple, and there are some known shortcomings: no support for pages (in terms of navigation), and support for tags but not categories. Basically, what you see here and nothing more. Enjoy!
