Dusted off Jawbone headset. Charged, powered up and good to go after several years of neglect.
Impressed, but shouldn’t this be expected?

Browsing http://timbuk2.com – this rarely ends well. I blame Jaffe.

If you’ve been using Social for a while like I have, you might also be seeing broken images in the comments area of your old posts. I did a little digging into this and discovered that this is related to how Twitter handles user avatars. When Twitter returns a user object, they include the URL…

This post outlines a few gems I wish I’d had learned years ago. One of the things I’m most excited about in my shift to CTO at Crowd Favorite is reducing the cognitive load that managing hiring, HR, benefits, paying bills, etc. take on my productivity.

Yay, an update to Twitter Tools! This should fix the “not auto-updating since upgrading Social to version 2.10 (or 2.11)” problem and adds a couple little goodies.
I’m primarily posting these types of updates over on the Crowd Favorite blog now, so be sure to subscribe over there. You can also or follow Crowd Favorite on Twitter or Like us on Facebook to get updates.

Subject: Back on chemo
Hi Everyone– I’m writing from the infusion room at the hospital – I’m back on chemo. This is my 4th treatment since I’ve been back “on the horse”, such as it were. The 2 months I was off was great. I got my strength back, did some traveling (a golf trip and some conferences), but…

One f*cking mystery chirp away from shelling out a grand on Nest Protects.

I investigate pretty much every new publishing system that comes out. I’m eager to see what features they think are important, and see what might spark new ideas for my own site. I got my invite to try Ghost a short time ago. I put up a test post, and was a shocked by what…

Most WordPress businesses are very young (Crowd Favorite was one of, if not the first in 2007). As these businesses mature and realize what is needed of them to take the next steps, consolidation often looks like a saner route than continuing to build. Especially for technical founders that aren’t as interested in managing the necessary business infrastructure (I count myself in this group).

Sharing photos from group/family events with each other is still way too hard.

I watch this and I feel shame. I think I’ll give this a shot when I pack for WordCamp PHX next month (I can throw my golf clothes in my golf travel bag).

Someone recently posted the entire contents of their SPAM comment generator script into my comments; I assume by mistake. It’s pretty interesting to look at. It appears that each line is a different comment with replacement clauses that would be randomly selected. View the code on Gist.

We’ve updated our CF Colors and Post Formats Admin UI WordPress developer libraries to be compatible with the admin UI refresh in WordPress 3.8. We’ve also update the Social plugin to address a change in the comment walker class in WordPress 3.8 (comments are shown as threaded again) as well as updates for the admin…

Fixed 5-10 WP 3.8-related bugs/admin UI issues. Next: tag and release 2 dev libraries, 1 plugin and 1 theme. And blog posts/announcements.
That’s a lot of overhead for a few bug fixes.
