A *must* for Magento Developers
Monday, January 24th, 2011I’m relatively new to Magento, at least in the hardcore, enterprise-y way. In my freelance work, I’ve done two small Magento sites. Basic store configurations, nothing crazy. Since joining CSG, I’ve dug pretty deep into Magento Enterprise. Anyway, Alan Storm is a hero, and his site is a must-read. He also has a killer plugin [...]

Tuesday, January 4th, 2011Life has changed a lot this fall, nearly all for the better. After living in Athens, Georgia for about 4 months, we were looking for a new place to go. The Criteria: Near Horses. Within cycling distance to a downtown with some culture. Access to family and friends. Nature. Anyway, somewhat out of the blue, [...]

Thursday, October 14th, 2010Sometimes I feel a little lame as a WordPress developer, I’ll admit it. There are SO MANY things that have already been done, it seems like it’s pretty easy to make a great blog / basic CMS site with WordPress. Anyway, great slide set shared by WPMU that highlights the differences in functionality, approach and [...]

Wednesday, October 13th, 2010I totally forgot about building this until it came up in conversation today. At one time I was obsessed with filtering everything I did on the internet down into one mega rss feed. And Yahoo Pipes was the coolest new thing on the internet.

Sunday, October 3rd, 2010I’ve been working with Drupal a bunch lately on some smaller projects, but it’s fun to dig into the codebase and see how other systems are built.

Tuesday, September 28th, 2010As I’ve blogged before, I’ve been going down the deep hole of html5/ css3 /js. In the not too distant future I think you’ll pretty much be able to do anything with those technologies. Thanks to technologies like Titanium (Mobile and Desktop) Anyway, the browser conditional selectors are still kind of a clusterfuck, but I love [...]

Thursday, July 29th, 2010I’ve been doing a bunch of freelance work since moving and am continually amazed at the weird and diverse selections of web projects that I somehow manage to find. Most are pretty fun little projects, building something useful to somebody for something. A lot of these low hanging fruit are building xhtml/css templates, typically for [...]

Friday, July 16th, 2010I have in my hand a copy of HTML5 for Web Designers by Jeremy Keith. It’s concise and fantastic. And I think it represents the direction things are going on the web. I’ve been doing web development as a full-time job for 7 years now. I remember once I dove in, and first bought Designing [...]

Monday, June 28th, 2010The original Job Posting. I had an interview, but withdrew my application before the second interview. The lead developer seemed like a pretty awesome guy to work with, but I’m interested in being in a more collaborative environment, and I’ve had continued freelance work to keep me busy enough. In a land before time… a [...]
