After a few delays I’ve finally gotten the site finished. Tamara is a good friend and great person who does what she can to make sure the world is a better place. Not an easy person to label just a good quality humanist that is well worth knowing. Residing in Seattle, Tamara first came to my attention when she was on tour with Ani Difranco. Enjoying her unique dj’ing style I visited her website and selected her as a dj of the month for the now defunct cdcrecords. I also signed up for her newsletter which quickly showed just what a noble person she is. Earlier this year while in Seattle we went out to coffee and discussed making her a site with blog that was less about the persona of djtamara and more about Tamara Weikel. If you read the title you’ll see just what a varied person she is. But enough gushing about Tamara onto the info about the site creation.
It was a pleasure designing a site that she was happy with and that allowed her to be able to update the site regardless of where she is. Using the newest version of Wordpress a variety of plugins and my trusty Powerbook I created this site to let her easily post to her blog as well as link to her favorite places. Integration with Falbum (as is also used here) keeps her photography right where you can see it best. I also added in a rather extensive links list using Nandini Doreswamy’s excellent Multilayered Fudge. In addition to that there’s also a mixed install of Sifr running, both a wordpress plugin version called Fancytitles and also a traditional Sifr installation. The photograph used in the header was a photo I took in Vancouver, British Columbia.
I’m quite happy with this site and am quite happy to have made the site for Tamara.
Give it a look and if you like the xhtml/css goodness let me know.
Happy Holidays to you Tamara!
