Wordpress tips and tricks – custom templates
Some time ago I posted the first of my tips and tricks for Wordpress, and I thought it was about time I posted some more so, to start things off, here is a short tutorial on custom page templates in Wordpress.
Custom page templates are very much an underused part of the Wordpress software yet they can do some very powerful things. Basically you can create a new template file and then use that to display Wordpress pages ...
Wooden, Binary calculator
I bought a binary clock once because I thought it was cool. I got it from Think Geek for about $15, but little did I realise that the tax that I would have to pay would double the price. A friend at work also bought one, and we set his up in the office. First we had to get an American to English plug adaptor, and then we used it… and it started smoking and then stopped working. I didn’t ...
Your online neighbourhood
Was aimlessly browsing today and stumbled upon this interesting post from blog-op.com – check out your neighbors.
Basically he mentions a website called myIPneighbours.com where you can find out the websites that are running off of the same shared server that you run on.
In the interest of sharing some link love, and helping out the others in my neighborhood, my IP neighbors are linked below.

My Harry Potter Conspiracy Theory posts have gotten ridiculously popular, all receiving over 500 comments – a couple getting close to 1000. So I thought I would have one last attempt at coming up with Potter related theories.
Actually that’s a bit of a fib, I’m not going to be coming up with any. What I intend to do is write down my thoughts based upon the vast swathes of comments that have been posted on here over the last ...
SEO Consultant Shimon Sandler Review
Shimon Sandler contacted me recently asking me to do a paid review of his SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) Consultancy blog. I haven’t used his services so will be reviewing his website and my opinion of the content on his site. I am not an SEO expert (although I like to think I do ok) so hopefully I will learn a thing or two from browsing his site.
DesignThe design of Shimon site is nice enough, but nothing particularly special, however ...
An underwater Office
Three Rings Design are a game development company in San Francisco, they make the very popular games Puzzle Pirates and Bang Howdy.
The company is run by a rather eccentric Englishman called Daniel James (see a photo of him here… he likes to wear this stuff). At work we run both Puzzle Pirates and Bang Howdy on Miniclip, and I had the pleasure of meeting Daniel a couple of years ago when Puzzle Pirates was still ...
WPZipper.com relaunch
WPZipper.com is in the process of going through a relaunch. The site is a method for getting a download of the latest version of Wordpress along with plugin and themes all wrapped up in a nice zip file.
The service looks quite cool but I have a few suggestions for future improvements.
Firstly I would work out what the most popular combinations are eg Wordpress, a couple of themes (Regulus naturally
Custom Paper Toys
More creative goodness today. This time paper toys – custom ones.
By day Matt Hawkins is a cartoonist at night, he turns into a paper toy designer, designing and creating custom paper toys, and I think they’re great.
The toys ave a twisted Ren and Stimpy style look to them, with lots of pimples and warts, and deformed stylings. They also have the full plans available so that you can ...
