I just launched a website for us all. The reason I created it is because good quality and relevant websites FOR us are hard to find. I mean, there are organization-owned websites that push political agendas, but ugh. I felt like there is a need for this.

I’m also looking for contributors! I want this website to have voices from all over the world. This is not my blog, I want it to be a valuable resource.

Please feel free to check it out, and give feedback on how it can be improved.

The link: https://www.thedigitalaspie.com/

The “aspie” part of the website name was chosen because it sounds less clinical or rather more casual/friendly. Please know that no offense is meant.

Oh? Can you be more specific?

The thing I noticed first is that titles get cut off without an elipsis.

Ah ok. I haven’t tweaked it a whole let yet. It definitely needs polished. I’ll see if it can be improved or not, and if not I’ll swap it out.

Anything else that immediately stands out?

Its too busy. Too complicated. I think I clicked on a post title and it took me to the tag?

Oooh ok, gotcha! Thank you for the feedback! I’ll tweak the theme next week to something simpler :)
