In Memory of Linda Kay
I built this memorial for my mom—a place for family photographs, remembrance, and the memories we carry with us.

Websites I’ve built
Different ideas.
Places of their own.
Some are useful. Some are playful. A few are deeply personal. These are the places I’ve built and keep online—and a little of what’s behind each one.
For the people I love.
A few things I made because someone matters to me.
Just for the fun of it.
A paper battlefield. A little movie nostalgia. No bigger reason needed.
Browser game · Artillery
Pencil Wars
I built a hand-drawn artillery game with destructible terrain and forts. Play against the computer, share a screen with someone, or build a battlefield of your own.

Movies · Tape-deck nostalgia
REWIND
I made a tape-deck-inspired home for cult movie quotes. Hit PLAY for another one-liner, with a little analog character around the edges.
Press play
A place to return to.
Different ways I make room for curiosity and reflection.
Curiosity · Public briefing
The Daily Signal
I share a read-only edition of the signals I’m following across technology, business, wellness, culture, and the wider world. My private idea inbox and project votes stay separate.

Reflection · Daily practice
Daily Discipline
I built a daily place for reflection: a challenging question, readings from public-domain works, and a practice to carry into the day. A small space to return to tonight, too.
Spend a moment
Close to home.
My corner of the internet, and a way to find a night together.
Houston & Katy · For two
Date Night
I put together a playful deck of 58 date ideas around Houston and Katy—a little help when we want to do something together but haven’t decided what.

Personal home base
JDB-Builds
My home base for the things I build, the work I do, and the rest of my life. Books, disc golf, reflection, ideas, and whatever I’m learning next.

A personal space. A design study.
One stays a preview here. The other is clearly marked as a fictional concept.
For Cynthia · A new chapter
Your Time
I made a personal retirement countdown for my sister, Cynthia, and a space for her next chapter. Private—shown here as a preview, with no public link.

Concept demo · Fictional
A Memorial Design Study
I explored another way to create a calm, thoughtful memorial. This is a fictional demonstration—not a real family or client—with invented people, memories, and AI-generated images.

More of the site. Still right here.
These pages belong to my home base, rather than separate websites. I’ve kept them in their own spaces—and made them easy to find from here.
