Fellowship Technologies, shame on you
You know me well enough now to understand that I’m pretty well-balanced. I don’t like to always operate in the negative, but I’m not at all ashamed to point it out when I see it.

Installing WordPress Easier
I was watching a guy install WordPress a few days ago, and I couldn’t believe what I saw. He downloaded the zip file from WordPress.org, unzipped it, and uploaded all the files to his Web server by FTP. Sure, it works, but why do it that way when you can go SO much quicker? Let’s talk about...
