Matte Elsbernd web publisher. writer. photographer. 15 years experience.
The web has always attracted me as a way to express my ideas. My ideas come in many shapes and sizes. Whether it's visual, verbal or programmatical, I've found some way to explore them, whether it turned into an actual website, stopped as a small demo, or remains simply an (not so) used idea that is waiting for someone else to take up and run with.
The sites/projects below are pretty much 100% my work from idea to writing, design, development, etc. I think it's a pretty impressive list, but it's still just a sliver of the ones I've wanted to build.

What Was New in 2009
The Firm List (April 07, 2009)
Profile System Updated
Continuing updates to the backend of The Firm List. I have made some major updates to the backend for The Firm List Profiles. Will be able to offer greater functionality soon!
The Firm List (March 16, 2009)
Updated Profiles System
I'm in the middle of backend changes across the site and today I launched a new backend to the Profiles section of the site. It's the first public step, but more are coming. Little has changed to the end user besides the URLs have changed (old URLs are being redirected as appropriate). Soon you will see more profiles, a different layout and better tools to update your profile.

This is What's New
Sometimes I forget that if you're continually adding to or updating a website, if no one knows you are, it's almost as if you're not doing anything. I always know what I just added, but to let everyone else know, I've added a What's New section to RESRC. This will be a handy way to show newcomers that this site has been around for a long time and is still growing.
HexHues (January 31, 2009)
What's New? What's New.
Sometimes I forget that if you're continually adding to or updating a website, if no one knows you are, it's almost as if you're not doing anything. I always know what I just added, but to let everyone else know, I've added a What's New section to HexHues. This will be a handy way to show newcomers that this site has been around for a long time (1996!) and is still growing.
HexHues (January 31, 2009)
Find A HexHue
Woke up this morning and realized that one of the core uses people would have for this site is to find (and name) a particular color. But I hadn't given anyone an easy way to get to that color. So, added a "Find a HexHue" box on each page which allows you to type in a hexadecimal color code and jump straight to the page for that color. If it's already been named, you can add a comment if you'd like. If it's not already named, you can submit one.

Send Me Feedback
Knowing from years of building websites that my websites grow better from real feedback (good or bad) from those who are using it, I've added a form for you to send me questions, comments, or anything else. Just click on the "Feedback" link found on any page.
RESRC (January 24, 2009)
Search RESRC
It's still in the early stages, but today I've added Search RESRC which is an implementation of Google Custom Search which will allow me to not only offer the ability to search the RESRC site itself, but will also (eventually) allow me to offer a search of the actual websites of those resources listed on here. That way you'll be able to search across the wealth of information they host on their websites.
