Josh Nichols

Hello!

I’m Josh Nichols, a.k.a. MrBlank. A designing, video game playing, comic drawing nerd from the middle of Missouri. Welcome to my personal site.

What’s going on here?

This site consists of several sections.

Blog

This is your standard blog with entries that are archived on this site, syndicated with XML and allow for comments. Some posts may have image galleries that use the nifty Slimbox.

Tumblelog

This pretty much just consists of odds and ends I find on the Web with my pithy commentary. It’s all run with Tumblr.com and fed into my homepage. Tumblr also pulls in my feed from Delicious.com.

More Josh

The latest entries from Midmococo are pulled via XML feeds. Xbox Live data is scraped and repurposed from various places. All the social network icons are from Komodo Media with some of my own to match.

Hey, isn’t this published with WordPress?

Nope. I love WordPress, I really do. It’s come a long way and I’ve had a lot of fun with it, but I want to do more than blog. After a long search, I’ve settled on the sexy, sophisticated Symphony. It’s streamlined and flexible and powered by XML and XSLT.

You suck. Your site doesn’t validate!

I’m all for Web standards and accessibility, but embedding Flash in a valid way is a royal pain in the ass. Therefore, if there’s Flash on the page, it ain’t gonna validate. Get over it. At least it all works in Internet Explorer 6.
