Baba The Storyteller Story: The Fool

Web Design or Blog Design

I get this question a lot; do you web design or blog design? and I say, is there a difference?
Most new site that I work on are built using free CMS like WordPress and Textpattern so they tend to have a bloggy feel to it, so I see where this question might arise from. But [...]

Photoshop Express tries to top Flickr

Not a big fan of Adobe, but this is worth the post. The new offering from Adobe packs more firepower than any other social media network (including Flickr). With their competitive edge in the media manipulation market with Photoshop, it is no wonder that they decided to call this online application “Photoshop Express”. I suggest [...]

Bush vs. Hillary

CNN projects that Nevada will go to Hillary. I thought it would never come to this, but I must say this to get it off my chest. I rather have Bush run this country down the toilet than Hillary, I am not sure what I dislike about her, I guess everything. Anyone but Hillary please! [...]

Al Gore’s WordPress Powered Site Hacked

Al might think he “invented the internet“, but he sure failed to upgrade his WordPress CMS, which resulted in negative publicity for the best open CMS out there. His site was powered by version 2.0.4, which as Matt points out, was released a good 16 months ago, and even beats the version I was running a [...]

Automattic to Focus on BBPress

Matt in an interview with WebProNews recently hinted that his team might start focusing on BBPress, the amazing open-source forum software that powers WordPress.org support, WLTC News and WPSnap Forum alike.
