Update
It’s been about a month since I posted anything worth while and I wanted to write a quick update to let everyone know I’m still here. Things are pretty hectic right now because I’m trying to get BadgeTracker ready for it’s next major release next month. That’s monopolizing most of my time at the moment [...]
ScoutMailer Case Study
I’m a big fan of the e-mail marketing app Campaign Monitor (CM). A couple of months back I wrote a post about how I resell CM to a niche market as ScoutMailer. Today the folks over at Campaign Monitor have posted a case study of ScoutMailer with some insights on how to resell CM to [...]
Your thoughts: why so negative?
I came across this post on TechCrunch yesterday about SitePoints new project Flippa. I’m a fan of SitePoint, have been for many years, but I have not used any of their auction or design services. The thing that struck me the most about this situation is how negative the feedback and responses have been in [...]

Last week I mentioned that I was going in for my Zend PHP 5 Certification exam on Friday. The test has come and gone and I’m happy to say I passed. To be honest, the test was a little more difficult than I thought it would be and I was a bit nervous at the [...]
WordPress: The Ultimate Hype Machine
One of the reasons things have been quiet here for a while is because I’m working on a new project called ScoutPath (http://www.myscoutpath.com). If you have been to my projects page you may know a little about it. ScoutPath is an online community for Boy Scouts where they can track their trail to Eagle, interact [...]
More to Come…
Woosh… it’s been a mega busy last two weeks. Between my full time job and my “other” job I have had little time to blog. Determined that I needed to find a new hosting company a week or two ago so I have also been managing a server migration and anyone who has been through [...]
Displaying Code in Wordpress
Does anyone know of a good way, plugin or other, to display code in your WordPress posts? I have been wrestling with this for a while and have yet to find a solution that works. Please post any recommendations in the comments. Thanks!
JPG Magazine Says Goodbye
I received a very sad e-mail this morning from JPG Magazine announcing they will be shuttering their site on Monday January 5th. In the e-mail they site a lack of funds and troubling economic times as the reasons they cannot continue. It’s unfortunate any time you hear about a worthwhile project going under but I [...]
