    It's a bit out of date, though. I created it in Illustrator about 8 or 9 months ago. It's probably not the best tool for the job in hindsight but it sure taught me a lot about how to use it.

      Hey Dan! I really like yours. Nicely put together! Although I wouldn’t have used justified paragraphs. It leaves several “islands” and “river” in between words, it doesn’t look nice. Plus, a left-aligned paragraph is easier to read.

        You're right. I did play around with it a bit when putting it together and my gut told me justified was better but you've highlighted some issues and now I think I prefer left-aligned :) Especially under the "Gojimo" heading, it looks pretty gross:

        "Refactoring and extending a large NodeJS"

        Thanks for the feedback, Hugo!
