I think I may be faced with a naming conundrum. I need to think some deep thoughts. There's gotta be a way through this. Ideas welcomed. #11ty @11ty

I’m guessing that these are AI-bot or other crawler bots visiting. But here are where visitors to the #11ty Bundle site are coming from over the last 7 days.

An interesting development regarding the national source of traffic to the 11ty Bundle site. These stats are over the last 7 days. Perhaps #11ty is being adopted heavily in China. Who knows?

A sneak peek at the redesign of my personal site. I have to say that this is turning out way different than what I had in my head and had sketched out on paper. Funny how designing in the browser has that effect. #11ty

The idiots at Facebook are really brilliant. They tell you that they've permanently disabled your account and then suggest that you “Log into Facebook." You cannot make this shit up.
