A New Year, With New Possibilities

CMDR Mitchcraft

Reading time: 1 minute

I’m back, and with the new year came some rethinking and restructuring of how I do things / what my overall focus is going to be.  I’m all about transparency, and plus I’d like to share some of my goals for the year, because I want to get feedback from my friends and readers!  And so, here’s what I’ve got in the works for ‘09!

  1. I’m restructuring Dr. WordPress.  It’s been inactive for a few months now, so I’m turning it into a site that will be used to sell…
  2. …premium themes!  That’s right, starting… well, once I get one finished, I’ll be selling premium news themes on my sub-site.  It’ll be good to have Dr WordPress hosting those, since I can’t link to a site that gives away themes…
  3. …which brings me to number three – studionashvegas is releasing a free theme soon.  Sensing a trend as far as WordPress goes?
  4. That’s where most of my focus will be going.  My goal: to eat, sleep, and breathe WordPress so I can make myself an expert on the subject.  I also want to start a PodCast and/or a (bi)weekly radio show on BlogTalkRadio/TalkShoe devoted to WordPress.  But that comes later – can’t do everything in the first month, now can I?

And now… I open the floor for discussion.  Is there anything on this list that is impossible, or just plain stupid for me to do?  What about something that’s *not* on the list that I am stupid for not doing?  If I should be doing it, I’d like to know 🙂

    So, you’ve got a personal blog and want to integrate your iTunes playlist into WordPress, but don’t just want to say that you’re listening to a CD – you want to display the album art too? WordPress has a few solutions that work great.  The easiest way to do that is by utilizing the “scrobbler”…

    State of the Word 2023 Recap

    Reading time: 2 minutes

    The WordPress community was abuzz with excitement as Matt Mullenweg, WordPress’ illustrious co-founder, took to the international stage to deliver the first non-North-American “State of the Word”, live from Spain. While there was some retrospection, the theme of the event was definitively looking forward as Matt (and Matias ventura, WordPress’ lead architect) teased new features…
