Help Mitch Choose a Tablet
It’s come a time when I need to get a tablet to truly dive into developing for the mobile web. I want to do a lot more HTML5 and mobile based sites, and list that as a skillset, but with only an iPhone, it’s sort of hard to do. So, I want to poll the…

WordPress Needs iOS Enthusiasts
There was a post titled (albeit linkbatingly) “Tumblr is Killing WordPress” on the Smedio blog about a week ago.

I had the privilege honor of being the technical editor for Lisa Sabin Wilson’s (then) newest book “WordPress Web Design for Dummies” from Wiley Publishing.

Upcoming WordCamps, June 2011 Edition
It’s worth noting that there are quite a few WordCamps going on in the month of June. There’s 3 in the US, and for those of you across the pond (waaaay across), there’s one in Thessaloniki (now that’s a camp I’d love to be “invited” to speak at!) Jun 4-5 WordCamp Reno-Lake Tahoe Reno, NV…
