Every now and again I like to check how my sites are doing in terms of visitors and if any of them are experiencing any problems.
Today I experienced a really nice surprise though.
Apparently, The New York Times had mentioned moustachify.me in one of their articles. I knew that the 700% increase in traffic had to come from somewhere!
Thanks NYTimes.
So a few months ago I bought my first DSLR camera. Always wanted one, and was growing tired of my little camera. So after a whole lot of research, many video and text reviews (thanks dpreview.com) I decided on the Canon EOS 600D. Price and feature wise exactly what I was looking for in my first DSLR.
And of course once you decide to get into photography on a more regular basis you start thinking about where to store and publish your photos online. These days that would seem like a rather easy choice to make, and that would be Flickr. Lots of features, huge community, and if you opt for the pro version (which isn’t that expensive) even more features!
So check out my flickr photostream for more photos I’ve taken lately!
The Work slash Portfolio section has been updated once more with the latest freelancing shenanigans I’ve been up to. First up we have Cake & Co, a lovely webpage designed by Mark Dormand for a cake company based in Cheshire, UK. Simple, but elegant site, HTML, CSS and PHP, the usual works.
Event Motorhomes provide motorhome hire, based in UK. Another lovely and elegant site designed by Mark.
And a new WordPress based site, Colette Ali. A personal stylist and shopper in UK. Some very interesting features under the hood of this site, which allow Colette to update her site even quicker and more easily. This site has to be the one where I’ve done most custom coding on (custom plugin changes, and a fair amount of custom page templates).
In other news, Mark Dormand has got a bit of rebrand going on, so be sure to check out his new site.
