Notes on programming-related problems that I’ve encountered while working on various projects.

What Are You Doing Inside of WordPress?

I know – the title of this post is kinda weird, but I figured it made sense given yesterday’s topic (that is, what are you guys and girls focusing on outside of WordPress in the coming year?).

After all, just because we’re looking to focus on things outside of WordPress, that doesn’t mean that we’re going to be moving on or moving away from WordPress.

And since WordPress is comprised of so much – that is, core developers, plugin developers, theme developers, documenters, teachers, educators, event organizers, and so on – I’m interested in seeing what you’re planning to do in the coming year, as well.

Happy Thanksgiving

We’re celebrating Thanksgiving today in the United States, so I’m taking a day off of the typical routine.

For those who aren’t celebrating Thanksgiving, I still hope your day is just as awesome (perhaps you can find the time to hang out with some friends or family or get some good food, as well :).

I’ll be resuming my usual posts tomorrow morning. Until then, enjoy the day!
