so, you use WordPress.  and maybe you’ve turned on Hello Dolly.  but if you’re me (chances are, you’re not me, but we’ll pretend for the sake of argument that you’re enough like me to continue reading this statement and past this ridiculous parenthetical tangent), you don’t have Hello Dolly turned on because it’s obnoxious.  (no offense to […]

i’ve been thinking about hacking the site design again. now that i’ve got the lifestream set up and i’ve seen how it looks in use, i’m thinking of moving things around to make things feel a bit more cohesive and less random. maybe emphasize the “this is what i’m doing right this second” aspect of […]

i’m still putting the final touches on the site, but the new redesigned look is here.  the theory is based on some stuff that has been floating around the net about how websites will become more like lifestreams.  since i’ve never been really happy with any single lifestream client (and i’ve tried a bunch), i […]

i’ll be frank: i’m a big fan of Automattic.  you might even call me an Automattic fan boy.  i keep up on matt mullenweg’s blog, and when he links to something, i jump.  when Automattic acquired intense debate, guess who was downloading it and installing it on his blog? on one hand, i’m always suspicious of companies that […]

class=”aligncenter” Hey again.  Been super busy around here lately, but something I found made me want to share.  This is a quick and easy trick that looks awesome and will save valuable space on your website.  Ever seen those boxes where you enter your email address or a search and it says “enter search/name/whatever here” […]

today i put my theory to the test. it goes like this: if the twitter rocket program is so easy, and i know the types of things that upstart blogger has exposed in the past so i know what he’d avoid, then the actual process needs to be really freakin’ obvious. so as i was venting […]

Today I’m going to talk about the Kitchen Sink. No, this isn’t a post about plumbing (thankfully — I hate plumbing). This is about the Kitchen Sink in WordPress. I can see your double-take already.

i’ve been ignoring my poor blog for a long time, opting instead for the much easier, Twitter. however, i had to post something because the wordpress 2.7 backend is so awesome, it’s just begging to be used.

so we’re back from our road trip.  i really meant to post a list of the fun and interesting stories that happened, but, you know, i didn’t have time.  as per usual.  i would like to state outright, however, that hitchhiking for gas in the middle of Nowhere, Utah isn’t very fun, but truckers can […]

i nixed the single sign on due to the fact that a) it was kind of buggy and b) i didn’t need it anyway. but in better news.  WII.  seriously.  wii.  it’s wiitastic.  i’m wiidicted.  it’s wiilicious.  and i’ve got wii-arm now. gavin’s b-day is coming up so we decided to get him a wii.  […]

w00t! WordPress and KickApps are now playing nice.  the single sign on app is working and all is right with the world.  there were a couple really little dumb things that needed tweaking.

looks like the single sign-on thing isn’t working right….when you create your wp account it doesn’t pass the authentication to the members/community site.  sorry about this folks, i’m getting it worked on. UPDATE well i got the join link up top working…sorta.  it’s just not using the single sign-on.  but it’s a temporary fix… UPDATE […]
