Responsive layouts and design is in vogue right now, especially in the WordPress space where most themes now are coming with responsive built right in. But what about all those other themes (legacy) that don’t have responsive built-in? You could certainly use one of the mobile plugins but I’ve never been a big fan of those, at least personally.

WordPress Hosting: It's Tough, For Good Reason
I woke this morning to more news that yet another known player in our relatively-large ecosystem and space may actually be getting into the WordPress Managed Hosting space. Tung Do, of DevPress, has been known to shake things up in the past with such things like a re-imagination of the WordPress dashboard, shared yesterday that he’s interested in getting into the hosting space and “revolutionize” experience: To create a more enjoyable and feature-packed service than WordPress.com.
