And there she is. We’ve gotten hints here and there that it would be coming soon and so late last night we received an early release version to try and test out (as well as the Stripe Add-on plugin). I booted it up on a local installation and I really liked what I saw – it’s what you might expect from an eCommerce plugin but from first glance it appears to be so much less than what the other options provide. Why? Because they’ve turned off many of the features that you can later turn-on that might cause too much […]
WP Bacon Launches July 23rd with John O’Nolan
Well it seems that it wasn’t just a cute idea with no meat (pun intended) on the bones with this new podcast idea as they are launching later this month with a live broadcast at 10:00am EST with none other than John O’Nolan, the founder and creator of Ghost. From their announcement to those that signed up for updates: Our First Guest Is Confirmed: It’s John O’Nolan. We wanted to launch the podcast with a bang, and that’s exactly what we’re going to do. John has agreed to come on and give us exclusive information about why Ghost is being […]
10 Flat Design GUIs, UIs for Your Inspiration, Use
“Flat design” is all the rage now especially with the pending release of iOS 7 that’s going to be sporting an all-new look that’s got many people talking. Personally I’m neither here nor there on it and can appreciate both it’s appeal as well as the previous focus on skeuomorphic-centric design.

Check out these 10 that I’ve collected recently:
Style Guide Boilerplate – Reuse Design Components
You and I have a toolkit that we use nearly every time we engage with a design or technical project. It’s a set of templates, designs, code, scripts, and software that we just keep coming back to because it helps us do our work with more speed and with more agility. Especially if you’re a designer there are just some components that you’ll continue to use from one project to the next. And sometimes this process is a bit of a pain, especially if you’re doing it time and time again for each new project that comes across your desk. […]
FITGRD – Simple, Responsive Grid System
Sometimes the best solution is actually the easiest one – and to be honest, sometimes WordPress can appear to be a much larger and more complex solution than is absolutely necessary for some client work and projects. I know for myself that I do not have to “WordPress-All-The-Things” in every project that I have to do – sometimes I just need to rapidly prototype some idea out and maybe much later come back to WordPress as the solution. Whatever I can do to speed up the process I’m game for!
