A blog where I write anything that comes to mind.Get rid of the newsflash plugins. Do it yourself!
Does the title ring a bell? I bet it does. It must remind you of the article i wrote quite some time ago titled "Get rid of the sociable plugins. Do it yourself!". It helped a lot of people save some CPU time and memory usage. Now it's time for the newsflash! The idea...
The theme change
I am always known to change my themes around here and i thought it was time for another one. The old one was a very impressive work from "Elegant Themes", but this time around i feel i got bored of it and i needed a more simplistic one. Why i chose this theme? Well,...
No MOTM this month

Should you be concerned about your WordPress security?
Since my early days, i've always been the one to second guess what the majority of people think. I've always been the "pain", you know where. When i hear most of the people saying "this is bad", or "this is not right", there always is a denial feeling jumping out....
