This is only my first draft of my new home page (https://www.jaredhatfield.com).  First off, I will admit it is still really ugly.  I'm still working on collecting all of the content that I want to display and haven't put the time into the formatting / CSS that I need to.
My basic goal is to collect a wide variety of RSS feeds based off of all of the services that I commonly use.  This includes services such as Digg, Twitter, YouTube and some other web services.  Obviously this also includes my blog.
The page is a custom PHP page that relies on MagpieRSS to pull in all of my RSS feeds and then I can simply use the content as arrays and do whatever I want with it.  Right now I'm simply displaying the few most recent entries.  Overall I feel I'm heading in the correct direction to accomplish what I want.
My other goal is to publish some of my code that I have written for various projects.  There are some projects that I have done for my classes that I want to publish some of the source code and others where I will only publish the binaries.  The main thing standing in my way now is deciding if I want to make the pages from scratch or use some type of CMS.
I am hoping I'll have enough free time in the next few weeks to make some progress on the projects.
