Well it finally came to pass… I re-designed my portfolio and found it necessary to start my own design blog. The formalities really quick: my name is Zeke Shore, I am from Boston MA, I have been an interactive, graphic and motion designer and developer since 2002, and I am currently living in NYC finishing up my studies at Parsons The New School for Design and working as a freelance designer. That was a mouthful. As anyone reading this surly knows, the design blog market is not at all saturated…. so my presence is clearly needed.

This was a multi-fold decision… the first being a pressing need for a vamped up portfolio site that better reflects where I am as a designer (it’s been about five years since the last design went live). While researching other portfolio sites, it became clear that every designer and their intern has a design blog these days. While I am not just ‘jumping on the bandwagon,’ I will concede to being tempted by the shameless self promotion that accompanies the consistent publishing of *hopefully* interesting and useful content. On a more honorable note, I relay on other design blogs every day for everything from news to inspiration to development tutorials, and I am well over due in returning the favor to the design community. Cheers.
