If the name looks familiar, that's because I did this site for myself. I wanted my own email address so I'm not tied to any particular provider, so I did up a minimalist two page site with just contact details and a brief bio, plus a blog page. In keeping with the minimalist theme, I've done a minimalist blog - visitors get only the latest post when they visit the page.
This style would suit someone who want's their own domain name for a personalised email address and perhaps a future working site, whilst being useful for contact details and a simple blog page in the mean time.
