Massive Blog Updates and Tweaks
It seems like every third or fourth post in this blog is about updating the site, but here goes another one. This blog has been long-neglected and it’s time for that to change. Today I upgraded Wordpress, the plugins, and the theme to the most recent versions. While I was at it I changed some of the plugins I’m using to improve the site and add new features.
I made a lot of changes to the theme. While I like Grey Matter, I’ve always felt it lacked color. Upgrading to version 3 changed the RSS icon to orange, which was a start. I then added the striped background, a stylized Twitter feed, and a bar across the top with my social media information and links.
Speaking of Twitter and social media, I’ve been trying to expand my presence in the cloud. I’m very active on Twitter and have increased my activity on other social media sites. My goal with these blog updates is to prepare it for more traffic. I’m going to start posting articles at least once a week with subject matter of interest to developers, geeks, and the like.
I have many other things to say, including the announcement of another site launch, but those will follow soon. For now, back to coding…
