I found this site to be really fun and interesting to look through top to bottom. I enjoyed the friendly, succinct copy that lead me through the site with things like “fancy-pants designer”. You can tell this truly is Mike’s playground and he’s having fun using skills like jquery and *responsive coding and the eclectic design makes me feel like I really am in his brain space. I questioned the placement of the blog as odd at first on the single page layout but it seems to fit in there okay with the quick toolbar nav.

*might want to check the spacing on ‘instamattic’ and ‘in my ears’ – I thought you were making up new words!
