Static For iPhone – Giveaway Results

February 1, 2013 / Tom

Last week, I did a short review of Static for iPhone. Though you can read the entire review on the post itself, I think it’s worth reiterating a couple of points.

First, here’s Static’s claim:

Static is the easiest way to view the most important statistics from Twitter, Google Analytics, Instagram, Dribbble, and Github.

Secondly, I think that the app stays true to its vision. The user interface is intuitive, looks good, and the developers have released two small updates since my last review.

With that said, here are the winners (completely chosen at random):

Yet Another Blogging Podcast – Episode 4: Finding Your Rhythm

February 1, 2013 / Tom / 0 Comments

In the third episode of Yet Another Blogging Podcast, I talked about how to go about scheduling your time without completely having to readjust your schedule, get up early, stay up later, or whatever other options a lot of conventional wisdom share.

At this point, you know that nothing that I’m saying is meant to be taken as the definitive guide to blogging. In fact, I don’t believe there is one. Instead, it’s meant to be nothing more than helpful pointers for what I’ve found useful in running this blog.

Why (And How!) To Use A WordPress Boilerplate

January 30, 2013 / Tom

For those of who you have been reading this blog for a while (thanks, by the way), you know that I work to maintain the WordPress Plugin Boilerplate and the WordPress Widget Boilerplate along with a growing community of developers.

Despite the fact that I’ve promoted them here on the blog, called for others to get involved, and so on, I’ve never actually given a proper tutorial on how to use them to get started in your projects.

So in my lastest series on Envato, I’m making a case for why the matter and how to use them.
