Category: Featured

Featured articles appear front and center on the main page. I’ll include the ones that I think that you would enjoy, as well as the most popular by the readers. Be aware that bellow you can only find the currently featured posts. If you want to see a more traditional chronological post timeline, you can pick the Blog in the menu above. You can also find a list of the latest posts in the right bar.

To me, interact is crucial so let me know on Twitter or email if you have any questions or if I can help you solve a particular problem that you’re facing. Don’t expect immediate feedback but, time permitting, I’ll answer to all feedback.
