I’ve been trying some new stuff with my client’s websites as of late. I wanted something where a multi-blog site could get the most out of as few plugins as possible, and still have a really awesome way to display their author’s main information. But, the information they ask for doesn’t have everything. What about twitter profiles? Facebook links? There’s a few things we…
If I had to subtitle this post, I would probably make some sort of a silly joke like “Georgia on my mind” or “Helvetica? I barely even know you” or something like that, but instead I want to jump right into the fun stuff. Back when the web was young and you were "likely to be eaten by a grue” (ok, maybe not that…

OK, so it’s not the most original title in the world, but it gets the point across :) I’ve been working with the fantastic Jeff Brown and the Way-FM crew to create a site for their Nashville presence that will allow them super-quick, easy content management and a place they can post local stories and events. WordPress, of course, is the logical choice, but…
Snickers commercial with Betty White Let’s be honest – Betty White makes nearly anything funny, and throw in Abe and some funny commentary from both and you’ve got yourself a killer commercial.

Personally, I think that the problem comes from WP people starting out…

And please, if you have any questions about WordPress, blogging, or anything in general (even if you weren’t at the conference) please feel free to let me know.
Let’s be honest – I’m ready to kick 2009 to the curb. This decade has been deemed by the news agencies as one of the darkest in American history. But let’s not focus on the negatives – let’s focus on what’s to come. We stand on the precipice of a new chance, a new start for some, and a new era in technology, media,…
Instead, I’m asking all of my friends and followers to help me out with a favor. Every year I take this time to recognize a special charity that is close to my heart. Child’s Play Charity is an organization dedicated to providing gaming equipment and toys to hospitals worldwide. They have over 60 hospitals in their network (Vanderbilt in Nashville is one of their…
If you saw the Huffington Post’s online version today, they did a great photo essay about the top 12 things that have gone obsolete. Some of them you may agree with; some of them you may not. But I think they forgot some of the most important things that we can’t live without now that may not even have existed 10 years ago. To…
