WordPress 7.0 Is Out!
WordPress version 7.0 is out. Wow, I’ve been on WordPress for so long! These new features look great, even without real time collaboration. To be honest, I never really understood why RTC needed to be in WordPress when so many other tools have it. Google Docs has it so many companies will probably just use…

AI Websites All Look Alike
There’s always been a look to a WordPress Website. To those who are looking you can usually tell what site runs on WordPress and what site doesn’t. The trick for most web designers is to make your WordPress website not look “WordPressy.” Now we have another look. The AI-generated Website look. I see these sites…

Fun With NFC Cards
I’ve been messing around with NFC cards and trying to figure out if I should just self-roll my own virtual business card (like Popl.co and Dot). I’m a big business networker. I’ve been an entrepreneur for more than 18 years. (Yikes!) I do love a good business card, but I’m also intrigued, and have been…

Clearly No Adult In Charge Of WordPress
WP Engine, who is in a prolonged legal battled with WordPress.org and Automattic over trademark and other legal matters bought a plug-in today. Congrats to them.

There’s much talk about the ethics here and some good commentary here. On the latest…

I got a call yesterday or the day before (honestly the days blur now). That my Mom was at the hospital up in Vermont with heart pains and burning. I think it was Tuesday, so two days ago. She was admitted to the hospital up there and then it was determines that they needed to…

Stranger Things Review: The Whole Series
What a series. What an ending. Yes it’s kind of horror, but more a thriller. Hard to believe that it’s been going for 10 years. Granted we had a global pandemic that caused it to be that long as well between some seasons. I finished the Stranger Things series finale last night with probably half…

Knives Out Number One: A Review
Last night I watched the first Knives Out movie, finally, with the Mere. It was so good. I do have to admit I don’t like Daniel Craig using an accent other than his posh British accent, it was shocking when I first heard his weird southern draw. But other than that the movie was superb.…

F1: The Movie
Such a good movie. Hard to watch with my PTSD from journalism. Didn’t think it would trigger my PTSD. But one scene (no spoiler) certainly did. Still a really good movie. 4.5/5 rating (IMHO) Brad Pitt still has it. Great movie.
