Updated My Portfolio
Aug 3rd, 2009 | No Comments
I just finished working on 2 projects and I thought I would be wise to list them in my portfolio page (check it out by clicking here!). I did 2 Wordpress-based blogs, integrating their existing designs into a full-fledged Wordpress theme. Also optimized the WP installations as well as configured/tweaked several plugins for SEO and Social Networking. The first one is the Clicker Blog, available at http://blog.clicker.tv. They haven’t launched yet so the don’t have any content as of yet. The second one I just finished is the blog for Indie Printing, available here http://blog.indieprinting.com....

Upgrade from a 3G to 3GS Iphone for $200 NOW
Jun 17th, 2009 | 1 Comment
We all know by now that Apple announced the iPhone 3GS, an upgrade to 3G (the S stands for speed) which will be available this Friday (June 19th). Its faster and takes videos (reviews here and here). They also announced the upgrade options which produced a lot of uproar amongst people who purchased an iPhone 3G; they are now required to pay $400 (or $500 or the 32GB) to do an early upgrade. These people that still have a year left on their contract and they still are upset because at&t won’t allow them to upgrade for the full subsidized amount of $200. Now, I don’t blame at&t,...

Cheap Security Certificates from Dreamhost
May 28th, 2009 | No Comments
I’m a sucker for funny and informative newsletter and blog posts, and the latest blog post from Josh Jones, head of Dreamhost (great hosting – read more here) is both of these characteristics and it introduces a new product (or just a deeply discounted one) – $15 SSL certificates. After a long rant about how flawed internet security is (and our reliance on them SSL certs) he makes the announcement that Dreamhost will now offer 100% trusted and signed SSL certificates. I’ve had to deal with SSL certificates in the past (it is definetely not easy to do) and now I can get...

Brand New Portfolio Page
May 1st, 2009 | No Comments
I finally came around to completing my Portfolio page here on my blog/site. It is somewhat incomplete, there are some pages I’ve developed that aren’t there because: a: They are perhaps NSFW b: The sites were for start-ups that have gone under and I never took a screenshot of my work (bad mistake). So, have a look at my portfolio, let me know what you think and if you want to hire me as a web developer, let me know via my contact form.
