Short, sweet, quick and easy, basic concepts that ring in my head when I imagine Wordpress plug-in development. Plug-ins are supposed to be exactly what they represent, plug-in. A simple modification, extension or enhancement of the wordpress blogging engine that is capable of being inserted within the system seamlessly.

What do you do when you decide your present mood isn’t fitting of its current environment? For me, I jump on a last minute plane to another city. At least this is what I decided to do Wednesday afternoon. I was driving around, running errands back home and decided that I wanted to take advantage of an oppurtunity; travel to Denver, Colorado.

Oppurtunities to travel, meet new people and create new memories is practice I do not believe I will be privledged with forever. Coming face to face with a new environment is definitely exciting and I like to take full advantage of the fact that I can; for now. Usually, I know exactly where my destination will be and the agenda for when I arrive. However, for my next trip, I would like some suggestions and decisions made for me.

Technology is not an excuse to multitask conversations and create an opening to play with your blackberry during real life events. It started in movies, individuals rudely leaving their cell phones on, interrupting films with their crazy high score sounding ring tones.

Early November was the launch for a contest, attempting to attract the talent and skills of a few great designers. The mission was simple, redesign my existing website with my content, mood, feelings and talents in mind. I wanted a site that could really explain who I am at first glance. Although the entries were few and the submissions were not exactly what I truely wanted; I appreciated the attempts.

I have been tied up so crazy-like during the last two months, I forgot to keep my readers informed.  I have been migrating from PC/Windows to Mac/OSX over the last month.  I’d been operating off Mac OSX for a little while and started enjoying the streamline of information from one application to another.

Do you believe practicing one habit every day help your business? Regardless if your business is blogging or creating sales leads for copy paper; I think it can. Do you feel the slightest comment, lightest of touches or tinsiest of details could have an impact on someone?

I have neglected to make any posts on my website in relation to my personal life; lately. In fact, I think I have pretty much decided to leave my personal life off this blog entirely. Not because I don’t think my visitors are interested, but because I feel that my personal life is not a topic that should be discussed too often.

David Peralty of davidcubed.com has decided to provoke me into discussing what blogging has given me.

As a blogger, the oppurtunity to reflect and share the material and non-material rewards from such ventures is interesting.  This discussion may seem like bragging, I agree with David in hoping that these threads inspire individuals to keep writing and reap similar rewards.  Blogging can be a career, David is 100% proof of that concept.

Submitting comments to someone’s weblog is similar to stepping into their kitchen and joining in on their conversation. Weblogs are an individuals personal social gateway, central location to spread their opinions and vent their thoughts to the network of visitors who loyally visit. Just as life, some online contributors commenting on weblogs are wonderful to interact with and some who are not.
