Spelling Dun Wrong

January 17th, 2010

I’ve seen so many people doing the Learn How to Spell things, I thought I would jump on board. At first my intention was to make fun of the misspellings in the misspelled word lists, but I’m above that (a little).

I do get upset when I see people spelling like idiots. It’s easy to click spell check. If you have issues with English, guess what? You can still press spell check. Hmmm.

Top 10 Wordpress Plugins I Recommend

January 14th, 2010

Some of you asked what Wordpress plugins I use or recommend. This is the list on ones I use or have used on this site. I do have many other sites I run, and I use different plugins on them. It really depends on what I need to accomplish on that site and which plugins have new releases when Wordpress upgrades their system to a newer version.

Happy New Year 2010

December 31st, 2009

Ah, we have lasted 6 months people. We have gone through 3 icons to represent the blog. I can’t tell you how many hours of work went into gathering up interviews, or how many photos I had to take to show off random design inspirations. It’s a part of what I do as your host here on BoxedinDesign. I’m still in it for entire marathon designers, so grab your drinks and hold high into the air. Let’s ring it in together!

Have a great 2010

have a good new year

See you all next year!

Break it Down Designers

December 30th, 2009

I’m curious to see what you all think of this.

Since I have been doing seo for many years along with my design, I keep close watch on my analytics and rss feed numbers. It helps me determine what I’m doing that gets my readers fired up. How far I can push things, and what your interests truly are. Well I’m assuming (even though that makes an a out of both of us) that you’re here to see some cool design, learn something, get free swag, and get away from your annoying manager. Yea, me too. Only issue is I’m hosting this party and I need to be entertaining. Not like a clown but like a design hero.

Back to Boxedin Basics

December 11th, 2009

BoxedinDesign has only been online since Jul 09 and I already went off adding objective videos that (while fun) were away from the intended direction of my blog. This realization came to me when SEOWebHelp merged with the Web Help Network.

My posts will go back in line with my first thought, and that was to make a design site to share with my friends (and the occasional drunk who’s online at the library). You will see more Photoshop and Illustrator tutorials, lots of freebies and lots of designer interviews. Oh, how I love those designer interviews. I know you can see those designers on other blogs, but not the way I present them! :)
