If all goes well, by this time tomorrow I’ll be finished with a job that I was paid for in December. Oh, they knew it wouldn’t be done until now, but I’ll never do that again. The project, however, is almost fun: converting a big existing website for a small corporate client to WordPress CMS [...]

Yes, and doing very well. I spent the day being mostly responsible, taking care of of overdue Web work for a few clients, sorting through the old emails, that kind of thing. The wind was howling under a partly cloudy sky, and I mean howling: last night it blew so hard, the chimney cap is [...]

It’s come to that. I need to get my body out into the world. I just emailed my Aussie Web marketing consultant in Adelaide to tell him I needed to come down for a bodysurfing lesson. I’ve been possessed, you see. Too much living in my head. It’s like I can’t be trusted to do [...]

Sorry, I’ve been lost in geekland, working on the new site. But I think I have it now, the thing that’s been holding me up: WordPress conditional tags. I had to study up on PHP syntax, but I got a little test to work. Heh. What this means is that I can have certain blocks [...]

The newest version of Thesis is even more awesome. The new site, which will look nothing like this one, is coming along. Hang in there! UPDATE: Still not ready, working almost 24/7 on this… going to sleep with PHP code running through my head … searching forums and user manuals, creating graphics, hashing out site [...]

Went to bed Tuesday night — er, Wednesday morning — at 4:00 a.m., got up at 7:45 a.m. Had a 90-minute nap Wednesday afternoon during which I actually slept for maybe 40 minutes. It’s after 1:00 a.m. Thursday now. Working on new website, having fun. I just spent a good two hours analyzing and backward-engineering [...]

Finally a breakthrough of sorts on the blog redesign! I will note here that this comes as a result of playing, or rather, of throttling back the panic and taking the time to find things that make me smile. What I did was set up a new header design in Photoshop and arranged things so [...]

Believe it or not, I’ve been quite busy working on the new FarrFeed. With any luck at all, we should all be looking at the new site very shortly. I’m using the Thesis premium WordPress theme. What’s so great about Thesis is the back end. The digital guts, the basic framework. This thing is SEO’d [...]
