The website redesign has launched!

I have redesigned smutgusher.com. Instead of the consistency and clean-cut slickness of the modern web, each section is a tribute to the messiness and creative power of the early internet.
This deliberate inconsistency is intended to bring across the feeling of getting lost when browsing the internet. Websites rarely link to each other anymore, so I have attempted to emulate as much of that feeling as possible.
This redesign also marks a continued step back from social media for me. People who follow me on Twitter might have noticed (or not) that I rarely tweet anymore. Having spent over a decade on various social media sites, I don't enjoy using them anymore. I will still have some presence on there, but it's just not going to be what it used to be.
Instead, I have moved towards this space. In my opinion, it's how the internet should be.
