Training a new webmaster x3

June 30th, 2009 § 0

I have taught someone code in the past. It can be difficult at times, but they do eventually get it if they are motivated enough.

But today I had to try and teach three members of my robotics team all at the same time. I didn’t think it would be THAT difficult. Yes, they got it, but it took a little longer than expected. But, to my surprise, they were extremely good at it and were immensely helpful.

We are working on a new website and I hope to post a link to it soon. Should be pretty awesome when all is set and done.

WordPress 2.8 and the Start of Summer

June 13th, 2009 Comments Off

I am officially out of school, and just to make that WAY better WordPress 2.8 was released on Wednesday. I have been kicking back so far over my break and enjoying some of the new features, including the faster backend. Twitter and I have been growing more intimate again and I am spending hours upon hours on there.

My facebook vanity was set at 11:01 and 42 seconds: facebook.com/jdhartley. Add me as a friend if you are so inclined.

I leave tomorrow for my first vacation. I am going to Underwood, MN. Small town that is probably not on any map (except maybe the Minnesota ones, and of course the one over at the big G) but my cousins live there, so it is worth the eight and a half our drive. :)

Anyways, I am hoping to post more on this blog this summer. I always seem to forget about it… hopefully that will change.
