Many of us are looking to provide continuing education for our WordPress clients, customers, and even friends and family at times. But let’s be honest, if you’re a designer and/or developer then you might not feel like educating your clients and customers is the best use of your time or that you’re very good with doing that at all! So you’ll either hire someone to provide that continuing education or bite the bullet and spend a few hours teaching them stuff that might actually make you pull your hair out. Or wait, there might actually be another solution out there for […]
RichWP Framework Retires… or is Reborn?
Some interesting news today as Felix Krusch over at RichWP has sunset his RichWP framework completely as well as completely giving away the 12 child themes that he’s worked so hard on developing. Or has he? He’s retiring the framework in favor of a much more “lean, fast, and responsive” standalone theme(s) that are going to be coming out soon: Therefore, I have decided to make the 2012 RichWP FrameWork, as well as its 12 Child-Themes, available for FREE. That is right: get all of the RichWP FrameWork/Child-Theme packages for FREE. No strings attached. This promo will be available for a […]

That’s why it’s great when we come upon open source frameworks built for mobile application […]
Getting Ready for Google Summer of Code, 2013
WordPress has been accepted as a mentor for the Google Summer of Code, 2013 which is a global program that offers students stipends to write code for *gasp* open source projects! Naturally, it makes sense that WordPress provide some level of mentoring and coaching for the youngins to get their feet wet. The student list is growing at a fast pace – now it’s time to get the mentors in line. This means that Jen Mylo is looking for you: IF you have worked on an assigned feature team in one of the last few releases, you can be a mentor, […]
Anil Dash on The Web We Lost
A lot has changed since I first jumped on to the web; I can still remember watching the Netscape browser icon rotate and shine at me as I waited eagerly for some random .gif to load (perhaps it was the dancing banana or some flaming horizontal rule gif on a website). I remember the rise of the Web 2.0 movement and how every corporate enterprise was high as fudge on “getting in” with it, without really knowing what they were really doing. I remember working during those years of Technorati and Flickr dominance and thinking meta data, meta data, meta data (all […]
