Late September 2009, Google Docs introduced an API for Google Sites. All that is kinda geeky so if you don’t understand it that’s OK. Basically, it allows developers to create companion applications for Google Sites or work Google Sites into their existing applications. One developer quickly jumped on this API to create a much needed [...]

My clients are pretty varied. Some just don’t want to be bothered by technical stuff and there are some who only come to me after they’ve spent way too much time on a problem. I can certainly identify with that. I like to solve problems myself but have to admit, there are some problems that [...]

Then join me this Wednesday night, when Kelly McCausey – also another trusted WordPress designer – and I discuss all about being a WordPress Designer at the Hot Seminar Series.

Many people are panicking, some say it’s nothing so which is it? First, relax a little. Computer viruses are released every single day with differing threat levels. This [...]
