modern meat!
Slowly and surely, I have been adding content back into the cincinnatimodern site. I have been living in a sort of technology haze these last few months – first I decided to listen to my son (and all of the designers I work with) and get a Mac. BIG mistake for a realtor, but more about that later. Then, I switched brokers and had to completely re-build my website from scratch using a webbuilder (suqarespace) that I was completely unfamiliar with.
After nearly 6 months, I finally feel like I have mastered my technology! Well, almost. I still have to run a parallel Windows machine on my Mac to access some of the Realtor programs I have to use (argh!). But the squarespace website is able to do what I could not do before within the confines of my broker’s webbuilder. I love that the home page of the site is now my blog (journal) – which keeps everything in one tidy place. Please feel free to comment on any of the journal posts and add a RSS feed to get automatic updates.
Check out some of the new content I have added in the last couple of weeks:
- a map of cincinnatimodern areas
- a link to order the only book on cincinnatimodern architecture and the 411 on the midcentury architects.
- info and a photo section on my house/my ongoing project
- links to modern resources in town
- links to other cool modern sites
And of course, don’t miss the links to the left to homes for sale in and around town – the spring season is almost here and more listings will be added soon. I have also added (by popular request) links to MCM & modern houses that I have sold over the past few years, and some of my MCM visual tours. Now that I am on a roll, please let me know if you have any comments or suggestions for other content. And as always, please feel free to link my website to yours. We’re all one big modern family!
