I had planned a larger post today, but I am so slammed with work and life that I decided to post in answer to Brian Gardner’s questions he recently tagged me with, as I knew I could write it quickly!
What is something that would surprise people about you and design?
It’s probably not a surprise, as [...]
The first prize winner in the Pimp My Blog contest is Angela Stevens! I wasn’t even surprised when she turned out to be the winner because she stacked the odds in her favor by racking up 26 (!) entries by writing about the contest on all of her multiple blogs and adding my [...]
I’ve got a new post up over at Wisdump about the top 4 mini-blogging options that are available, including a comparison chart to get a quick idea of what’s available. There are zillions more of course, allowing you to share your current mood and what you ate for breakfast, as if anyone cares, and I [...]
When SheUnlimited contacted me recently about doing a podcast interview, my first response was “Me…? Really? Are you sure you don’t have me confused with someone else?” I was happy to do it though, and even though I apparently have a slightly Texan accent that I was unaware of, it turned out all [...]
Ilker at The Thinking Blog has a fun Caption an Animal Challenge going on until August 25th in the spirit of sites like this one, and I’ve had this picture since we lived in Chicago a couple of years ago that I thought would be perfect:
I’ll bet someone cleverer than me can come up with [...]
There’s been a great meme going around lately which leads those tagged to share 10 of their favorite posts from the past. I’ve been tagged by Jeanne at A Writer’s Notes and Trinity at Rooms of My Heart, and it has been interesting going back through 7 months of posts.
It’s funny really… I had [...]

I appreciate all the entries so far, and [...]
WordPress is increasingly being used as a content management system, and I think we’re about to see many blogs follow the trend we’ve seen recently in sites like Problogger, from simple blog to “portal”. These portal entry pages are more of an overview of all the content the site has to offer, featuring all the [...]
I recently received an e-mail from a representative of the English National Opera letting me know of their new interactive mini-site, which includes a multi-author blog, that has been designed to give a behind-the-scenes look at their upcoming production of Carmen. This is a use for blogging that had never occurred to me, but [...]
Ok, this is going to be a techie post, so beware, but I always find it helpful when I’m searching for solutions to problems to read about how others have solved similar ones.
My permalinks broke over the weekend. I still don’t know why, but they just stopped working in the configuration /archives/%postname%/ as I [...]
