On My Year of Reading or Reading Rainbow!

Do you like my super artsy art? I want to start making accompanying sketches to my post, even if they are stick scratchings. I think I have narrowed my books for the year all picked out. I tried to get a good mix of different genres and take a bunch of suggestions to get stuff that might not have been on my radar. Thanks to everyone who gave me suggestions, I really appreciate it!

1. Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand – January

2. The Fault in Our Stars by John Green – February

3. The Travels of a T-Shirt in the Global Economy by Pietra Rivoli – March

4. 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami – April

5 .Steve Jobs by Walter Issacson – May

6 .Racing the Beam by Nick Montfort – June

7. Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell by Susanna Clarke – July

8. Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain – August

9. The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith – September

10. iWoz by Steve Wozniak and Gina Smith – October

11. The Big Short by Michael Lewis – November

12. Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk -December

This is the list for this year, and if I read through them all with extra time I have a contingency list waiting as well, with a lot more of your suggestions.

I have all the books on my trusty iPad, Matilda, ready to be read. This is going to be great. What will you guys be reading this year, or are reading now? I am curious. Let me know in any way you can, comments preferable. I mean you can use any account now to post, there is nothing stopping you! Happy reading!

New Era on Killer Tofu

Going off the energy from posting my resolution post, I have revamped the website. Back-end mostly, so it will look the same to most of you, but some very important changes which will allow me to share more and more frequently with all of you!

I have the site separated into 3 parts now: Main, Mini, and Share. I will go over what each one is and how to get to them.

Main

This is pretty simple, same great stuff you have been experiencing, same way to experience it. Just go to the main site.

KT Mini

One thing that has plagued me for a while is not posting short articles or just pictures. I have missed so much stuff to share with you guys because I didn’t want to interrupt the long-form writing. This is where I will post photos or short thoughts that I want to keep around and you guys can see them. This means more frequent updates. These will not appear on the main site, but can be accessed at:

http://www.killertofu.com/mini

KT Share

This is my Tumblr replacement because I don’t like Tumblr. This is where I will put all the stuff I find all over the net that I want to share with you fine folks. Really, think Tumblr. Like KT Mini these will not show up on the main page. They can be accessed at:

http://www.killertofu.com/share

Fitness

This is per my goals on the resolution post. I will be keeping track of my fitness here. These WILL appear on my main page so you don’t have to do anything special to see them. If you would like to see them condensed or only want to look at that portion of the site you can find it at:

http://www.killertofu.com/fitness

Those are the main additions, that are relevant to you guys. If you go to the blog page and check the side I have added RSS feeds. If you use Google Reader or any other RSS reader to look at content on the web, I have separated all the new stuff into feeds. There are feeds for the main site, mini, and share, or you can get all posts in one convenient feed.

All updates will be posted to Twitter and subsequently Facebook so those are also places to find new content. I am excited for what this means for sharing stuff with you and hopefully this whole thing will become more interactive. As always, please comment here (preferably) or on Facebook and Twitter. What do you guys think of the additions? Any suggestions? 2012 is going to be awesome, not just for me, but for the site as well.

 

P.S. iOS users should go to http://www.killertofu.com and add it to their homescreen to see the sweet new icon. Also, the mobile site is up again and working better than ever.
