  1. Take RAMP for a Spin

    We recently added the ability to take RAMP for a test drive before you buy. On the RAMP page, click that “Demo” button to sign up and we’ll set up both a staging and production WordPress site for you – with RAMP installed and configured on both sites. You can log in, create and upload…

    The inaugural Pressnomics conference was a definitive success.

  6. Centralized vs Decentralized Version Control: 2010 vs 2012 →

    If you’re a serious Open Source developer in 2012, you’re using Git. Crowd Favorite made the move as a team back in February. No regrets. More and more of the WordPress community is joining us in putting their code on GitHub. I expect this trend to continue and developer peer collaboration to rise along with it.
