Eating My Words – WordPress GPL
Ryan Hellyer direct messaged me on Twitter recently to link me to something I wrote over four years ago about GPL and what it was doing to the WordPress community. I have to admit that back then I was sometimes contrary just to be contrary, and enjoyed debating the anti-WordPress…

Apps for Gma’s Android Phone
I have been thinking about smartphone applications for people that are a bit up in years, and have come to the conclusion that there isn’t enough designed specifically for the older crowd. Of course, this does make sense, as the key demographic for an Android smartphone user is probably nineteen…
