Resources for Designers
I discovered I wanted to be a designer back in the 1980s when I was working as an accountant, a job I hated for 26 years. When we started using spreadsheet programs all I wanted to do was design beautiful spreadsheets. I really wasn't interested in the numbers that went in them. I found these resources in a wonderful book I am reading titled A Whole New Mind: Why Right-Brainers Will Rule the Future. It explains why, in the near future, a MFA will be more valuable than a MBA.

to start my own blog soon but I'm having a tough time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something unique.
P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!
