This layout is called Rubric, is designed by Hadley Wickham, and won second place in a styling competition for WordPress. I’ll come up with something of my own in a while, but not just now.
[Update: design is changing…]
I'm Jill Walker Rettberg, author and professor of Digital Culture at the University of Bergen in Norway.

This site started as my blog in October 2000.
