A life update: About two months ago my job ended at Smart. I had been working from home out of Des Moines ever since we moved here back in August, but the company hit some tough times financially and pretty much went under in May.

So a few weeks ago I got a job at Webspec Design, a small web design company here in Des Moines. I’ve really enjoyed it the past few weeks, and I’ve learned an unbelievable amount of stuff even though I’ve been making web sites since I was 12. Particularly, I work with WordPress most of the day, and the longer I get to make these cool sites at work, the more I want to redesign mine. So expect a facelift here in the next couple of months when I have time.

For now, I added the feature to subscribe to comments by email. A couple of people had asked for this due to some of the discussions on the last few posts. If you leave a comment, you can check a box to be notified of all subsequent comments to that post. (Unfortunately, it only works if you actually leave a comment, so if you want to follow a discussion then you have to contribute as well!)
