Last weekend I ventured back to BlogWorld & the New Media Expo and Las Vegas WordCamp. The great thing is that all three conferences were consolidated in the Las Vegas Convention Center. I closed out WordCamp with a Session on How to Design a WordPress Theme in Minutes. The video from the event is not yet available, but the slides are below:
Since July, I have been experiencing CPU usages on my Virtual Dedicated Server. In July, my host InMotion Hosting, whom I have had an excellent relationship with for over 3 years, recommended that I should move to a ‘new faster server’ and they would migrate my accounts for free.
Sounded good, I asked a few questions, hoping to make a relatively informed decision, but I know next to nothing about servers and hardware, which is the reason why I turn to them for hosting and Virtual dedicated hosting specifically.
They upgraded me and within about 2 weeks, I started having problems with...
If you are wondering why the recent Microsoft and Facebook agreements are so relevant, consider a couple things. Facebook membership and usage grows at leaps and bounds. Facebook is becoming one of the primary places for people to go on the internet, and while they are there, they search for things and people. More people and groups right now than anything else, but that might change soon.

Here’s a few samples to let you experience just how great Jake Shimabukuro’s music is, and then consider that this talent might not have seen the light of day if it weren’t for his simultaneous mastery of social media tools and marketing to help keep his art alive and thriving and available for us.

Heather from the blog Beautiful British Columbia shared 5 great tips for writing a sponsored tweet that I’d like to share with everyone. As this is a relatively brand new monetization and communication medium, I think it is safe to say that the verdict is still out on best practices.
That said, Heather has captured some of the essentials that will likely make the list. Here’s a couple that seemed extra insightful to me:
As I’ve read about people potentially losing their personal data during the Microsoft/T-Mobile/Danger/Sidekick fiasco, I thought to my self, well that’s the price you pay when you rely on the cloud to keep you safe. But the same thing could happen to me now that I’m using a Palm Pre. It relies heavily (far too heavily) on Google Contacts (an awful system, definitely not up to par with Google’s normal standard) and Facebook.
