My pet projects
Posted by Opinioneer under: On My Projects .
It seems I am not writing daily as I was originally hoping but after all that’s not necessarily bad. I’ve been busy with a couple of pet projects, one of which has come into completion after almost four months. I was working with a developer to design a new Wordpress theme for a business project I have been working on over the past year and a half or so.
Initially I started designing the site myself but eventually decided that a designer with skills fresher than mine would probably make a real difference, and I am happy I took the step of hiring him. Finally yesterday he notified me that the site is complete and installed in my domain, so the only thing missing is for me to run a final test.
I won’t say what the site is about, but I will say that Wordpress not only makes a cool blogging engine but also a good Content Management system (CMS).
An experienced eye will be able to tell that it is probably running on Wordpress, due to the Flickr and Tag Cloud widgets, and also because comments are enabled, but overall it is a really cool site! Simple but cool!
The other pet project is still going on . This developer doesn’t seem as customer friendly as the designer that did my first project but the verdict is not out yet.
