Based on a Tom Paine quote 'I am a farmer of thoughts, and all the crops I raise I give away', the home page presents an 18th-Century map of fields, with a custom full-page image hover effect over areas of the map that present different categories. Selecting a category gives a pop-up to lead each section and entice further investigation.
This changes for responsive views on tablet and mobile, where the hover effect and pop-ups are replaced, to serve categories with their lead-in content overlaid on images.
Each section features a simple-to-use ajax search, and we've focused on making his wealth of articles easy-to-browse. There's an accessible site map which provides full access to all the articles - which include all the blog pieces from his popular Disabled Lives blog.
Tom likes to be organised, so he sourced and added Daily Quotes for a whole year ahead, that run along in a daily schedule. He can select articles from the content vault to suit, so if he's presenting a radio show on a particular subject, he can feature a related piece on the home page.
