Announcements

I’m writing this sitting in a car travelling to Kentucky to my parents house for Thanksgiving.  Isn’t technology fantastic? It’s been just over two years since I bought my studionashvegas domain and started the twitter account for my business.  It’s been a very interesting two years (to say the least) but if you would have told me two years ago what I would be…

foursquare: Your Social Life, Metagamed.

Social Media

There’s a new social network in town.

Social Media

Chances are, however, that may not always be the case. Chances are that you may have…

Conferences

WordCampBirmingham is little under an hour and a half underway down here at the Innovation Depot in Birmingham.  Dougal gave an amazing presentation on plugin development earlier and Sara Cannon is giving a great presentation on branding WordPress as we speak.  There’s a lot of people here (around 200ish) and so far the lineup of presentations is looking to be killer.

Better Know a WordPress Tag: ‘siteurl’

WordPress

When you’re working on a development site it’s hard to set things up correctly because you know you’re going to change the site, and putting in elements that are more than likely “stationary”, such as links, will have to be changed, and that causes un-necessary headache when it comes time to move the site live.  But, in the light of wanting to make your…
