I’ve taken a second stab at converting the elegant, Creative Commons licensed static HTML themes from HTML5 UP and baking it into a WordPress calling card theme. The first one I did was based on the Dimension theme, and got a nice tweet from Dan who just put it to use Holy crap! I have […]
I sometimes tell people that when technology evangelists espouse that their tool saves you time, that it’s a red flag warning / code talk for “I am lying”.
