Thanks Ana. Good question. I need to read through it again and think about it. I think I have been more comfortable to post more personal things. I will get back to you if I think things have changed and will probably do a follow-up post.

Jeff Bridgforth @jeffbridgforth.com · 6d

I am glad it inspired you. Good luck.

I enjoyed reading through Ana's presentation last night. It got me thinking about my own journey in owning my online presence. I remembered this morning that I had written about that journey almost two years ago. It was good to revisit it this morning.

I enjoyed reading through your presentation. I look forward to reading your blog post about the experience. Here is my personal site: jeffbridgforth.com. I wrote this a couple of years ago about my own personal journey of owning my online presence. jeffbridgforth.com/becoming-com...

I wrote a reflection on my own "antis" based on @jim-nielsen.com 's article, Anti-*: The Things We Do But Not All The Way. There were several things on his list that I overlapped with and I came up with some different ones for me.

My son was "putting on an art show" on Friday. My wife and I traveled up to Kentucky to be part of the opening. I am proud of all of his hard work in putting this together. It gave him a great confidence boost as he looks toward a senior show in the spring.

I have used this tip at least a couple times in the last week. It allowed me to add more dark to a background where I had added it in Photoshop. Thanks @kevinpowell.co

Single-colour gradients

It might seem strange, but single-colour gradients can come in handy in a few different ways!

I am so excited to share this article with the world. It started as a question on Front End Study Hall in August that led me to ask, "Is it time to Un-Sass?"

Credit to @sturobson.com for coining un-Sass. Term was spot on to describe what I have been thinking about.

Is it Time to Un-Sass? | CSS-Tricks

Many of the Sass features we've grown to love have made their way into native CSS in some shape or form. So, should we still use Sass? This is how developer Jeff Bridgworth is thinking about it.

@artlung.com I used a question from Front End Study Hall that I didn't get the chance to answer as a basis for my first article on CSS Tricks.

Jeff Bridgforth @jeffbridgforth.com · 21d

I am so giddy. I am now a published writer. I am so grateful for this opportunity to share my voice on CSS Tricks, which I have been a reader of since 2009.

There's a nice series from @sturobson.com getting into *why* and *how* to "un-Sass" CSS.

@jeffbridgforth.com is making a similar leap and shares how he's approaching it:

This has not been a fine day for science.

Brought a site down when trying to update WP plugins. Finally got restored. Took a bit to set up staging environment to update plugins there to determine problem. Identified problem. Went back to production and another plugin brought site down again.

Today is my friend Anthony's birthday. I lost touch with him a long time ago. But I think about him every year on September 6. We met during our sophomore year in high school. I wrote some reflections about our friendship to celebrate his birthday.

Happy birthday, Anthony
