• My Experience As A Volunteer At Wordcamp Boston (with Session Slides) #wcbos

    Wordcamp Boston 2010Now that it’s over I wanted to write about how great Wordcamp Boston was. Check out #wcbos or #bestwordcampever if you need more proof. Or you can relive it on the live blog. I first found out about it a couple weeks before the tickets went on sale, and I immediately wanted to go. The next thing I heard was that tickets were sold out….bummer. I didn’t even know they went on sale and they were already gone. Luckily I happened to see they still needed volunteers, which I was willing to settle for even though I wouldn’t be able to see and do everything I wanted when I wanted, and I would have to do work. I just wanted to be apart of it, and I was one of those chosen to volunteer so I would be able to go after all

  • 25 Unbelievably Inspiring Works Of Art – Masters Of Design

    It’s time for another dose of design inspiration. I think it’s necessary for designers to look at others work often to help expanding the imagination of creativity. It opens you up to more ideas and things that you wouldn’t normally even think of or consider doing yourself. I think my favorite type graphic art is photo manipulation because it is one of the most creative forms of art I’ve ever seen, and it requires an extreme amount of skill to do effectively

  • How To Make A Dynamic jQuery Feature Post Slider For Wordpress

    jqueryI finally finished getting my new custom jQuery featured post slider working as you can see in the header of the site. It took some trial and error but I eventually managed to figure out how to get it working. I ran into issues because I was first trying to use to get the posts, but then learned about WP_Query() and that solved all my problems.

bdayI just turned 27 on Saturday and I gotta say, it wasn’t really any different than any other day for me. You know how I spent my birthday? I was working on websites, learning more about Wordpress and all that stuff that I do on a daily basis. I spent the majority of the day alone, on my computer. I’m so exciting, and wild huh.

The whole weekend really was basically nothing more than ordinary as far as birthday weekends go. It’s not like I couldn’t find stuff to do, I just wanted to do what I do, and it made me depressed.

Dogs n CatsThis is one of the funniest things I’ve read, and at the same time scariest to thing that cats are that sadistic. It makes you wonder if your cute little kitty will one day manage to somehow murder you then eat you to dispose of your body, and then get someone else in trouble for it. Okay haha, that maybe a bit extreme, but who knows what they are really capable of.

Are you a cat lover? I am a cat lover. So let’s play a game called, Pass the Cat!!

Poll_IconI’m interested to know where you are from. Even if I already know where you’re from you still need to vote. It would be interesting to see if there more people from your part of the world on here than you thought. It’s a small world after all. All of you people that visit this site, tell us where you’re from. I am especially interested to know if any of you are from parts of the world like South America, Asia or Africa. As far as I know most people who visit Tweeaks.com are from either North America or Europe, and a few that come from the land down under!

Climate Change And Global Warming Solutions

header-logoSince today is Blog Action Day, I am writing about something different than design. This is about the changing climate, and the issue of global warming which the world is dealing with today.

I hadn’t noticed it as much as I did after watching the movie The Day After Tomorrow, great film by the way, and the day after watching it, the Tsunami of December 26, 2006 happened, killing thousands of people and wiping out towns and villages all over the affected countries.

The whole next year I was hearing on the news about how there were wild fires in California, ice storms in Minnesota, hurricanes in the Florida, and snow storms around where I live in New England. There were natural disasters happening all over the world, and if you don’t think they are being caused by global warming and the earth trying to correct itself, then you are just ignorant.
