Mobile Post

I figured I’d give mobile posting a try while I mess with Wordpress. I’ve already noticed a few issues I’ll need to address, but they’re relatively minor.

The frontend needs a handheld styleshhet. It didn’t render quite the way I would have hoped in PIE.
The admin login doesn’t bring you into the Admin section after logging [...]

A Guide to CSS Support in Email

Dave Grenier just posted a great article on CSS Support within email clients and, more specifically, web email clients. What a fantastic resource… Considering that I am designing more and more emails for a few of our clients, this couldn’t come at a better time.

An Event Apart: Atlanta

I’ll be making the two-hour trek to attend An Event Apart: Atlanta this Sunday. Originally I was going to drive up on Monday morning, seeing as Augusta is only 2 hours east of Atlanta. I decided it would be a good idea to head up a little early so I wouldn’t have to contend with [...]

Go Scott Go!

Scott V. reminded me that one of our programmers, Scott Parel, qualified for the BellSouth Classic. Kick some butt, Scott! We’re praying for ya.
Scott is a professional golfer on the Nationwide Tour, basically one step down from the PGA Tour. Well on Monday he played for one open spot in the BellSouth Classic and won [...]

Meet Jesse

Meet Jesse, the American Boxer puppy my parents picked up over the weekend. She’s an adorable pup and has made me desire to get a Boxer even more… I made a deal with Kim that might aid me in this… If I lose 100 lbs, she’ll let me get one. Sounds like a plan to [...]

We Have Liftoff: MAU.com

Months of hard work have finally paid off – we launched the new MAU.com, just moments ago.
The site was an awesome undertaking. We had to convert several years worth of static content, and reorganize it in a logical way. We worked closely with MAU staff to ensure everything worked the way the organization needed for [...]

CSS Mastery

When I first read about the availability of CSS Mastery, I was excited. I had been looking for some advanced CSS books to further my learning, and this seemed to be just the ticket. I finally finished reading it last night.
It is the most useful book on CSS I’ve read (and I’ve read a lot).

Good editors build great software.

Jason Fried’s like the Buddha of Web 2.0.
There, I said it.
I am amazed by the logic that comes out of 37Signals. It’s simple. It’s smart. It makes plain sense. It’s not revolutionary, but then again… in a sense it is.
Software should be simple. It shouldn’t force your users to figure out how to use it. [...]

Post Migration

After several attempts, I was able to migrate all of my posts through Blogger into Wordpress. I wish I could say it was easy, because it wasn’t… and I wish I could say it went off without a hitch, because it didn’t.
Because the server I am on doesn’t have cURL enabled, I had a tough [...]

Lost (and Found)

Since yesterday afternoon, I’ve been freaking out because the office digital camera came up missing. I thought, perhaps, that I had simply misplaced it somewhere. I thoroughly checked my desk and my laptop bag – no dice. I went home, checked all of the usual locations that I tend to place items – no dice.
Fast [...]
