28th: Have You Checked…: 1 comment

Fellow webmasters,
Have you checked your blog’s validity lately? I would urge you to, especially if you are using the handy sidebar widget plugin. Why, you ask?

27th: Me and Mac: 0 comments

At work last week, I started pushing the updates to our website that I have been working on, so the outside world can see them.

23rd: 5 Things You Don’t Know About Me: 4 comments
