In my time as a WordPress developer, I’ve gone through all stages, but have now settled on a theme framework, using Genesis Framework. Let’s dig in, shall we? Broke out most of the con...

Thoughts on web development. Using Gulp for WordPress Theme Development. February 4, 2014. Gulp is the new kid on the block when it comes to JavaScript task runners.

Thoughts on web development. I Love my iPad, but it’s Incomplete. May 25, 2010. I picked up a 32GB WiFi iPad about two weeks after it was released and, while I’m generally in love, there are a few things clearly missing. One of my intentions was to cover E3 in Los Angeles this June with only the iPad, leaving my MacBook Pro at home. Sadly this won’t work out as a few key apps have not yet been updated or released.
