OK hi again,

I did some updates to the design, and also added a small JS library for
j/k/o navigation that sincerely, does not work that well. Result in the
same url [1].

I've also moved the full new theme to a new folder[2], so in theory,
switching to the new theme would be as easy as committing here[3] the theme
name. If you are happy with the current status, please feel free to deploy
the change, otherwise, I'll do that as soon as possible.

For me, next step on this small project is a big clean-up of blogs (say any
wrong url or no new content over the last two years) and then try to get
new sources.

Cheers!
