additions

so i've removed a few of the themes, so far, that i'm quite sure i won't be using. and added a few plug-ins that look to be fairly useful. exploring the word press site has been very interesting. not exactly striving to learn everything right off the bat - but so far so good!

from the looks of it, i could conceivably do an entire site using wordpress alone. i almost wish i started with it in the first place. but since i didn't, i'll work on incorporating it into the site i have; i will try not to have too much overlapping information, that would be dull.

next step: adding to the blogroll...

updating blog…

going thru old posts, today. updating the categories (so everything doesn't show up as "uncategorized"). interesting to me; i've noticed a consistent lack of information in my posts. i was so determined to not infringe on someone else's privacy...

i think i really need to put in a little more information. at least describe the situations and what i'm doing about resolving issues. what type of project am i working on? what software am i using? what time frame is involved? is it a beginner's issue, or something a little more complex? up 'til now, i've never even used categories...

it's probably a good thing i haven't been too consistant in the past -- only 45 entries to edit (haha)

PNME

i made the decision this morning. i won't be attending. i have this terror of crowds that leads to panic attacks; going alone to a convention is just too scary.

but i do recommend it to anyone interested in podcasting, video blogging, online video, the works! there are many session tracks available (beginners, monetizing, editing, content management...) and tons of dealers are going to be there. there's a podcasting 101 camp the day before the convention starts, as well. for those who can't attend (it's in ontario, CA - sept. 28-30) the podcast brothers podcast is a good way to catch up on many of the events. i'm listening to that thru iTunes.

experiments

checking out varied themes and layouts. glad i know a little CSS. going to be changing this rather often over the next few days (weeks?) as i experiment with changes and such.

started by downloading quite a few themes from wordpress. as i look at each variation, i'll be taking notes re: what i like, dislike, and definitely MUST keep. don't expect much continuity for a few days. bits and pieces may pop in and out as i tweak the settings.

success!

wordpress has very good documentation. took all of 5 minutes to find an answer and apply it. old blogger files have been imported, and we’re ready to go!
