Tag: Problem Solved

Problem Solved is one of my favorite sections, or at least the articles I have the most fun writing. Here is where I solve a problem that bugged me for a while and shared the solution to you, so you don’t have to spend time looking for it. All posts will be within the theme of the website, so don’t expect programming solutions, for example.

I call it “Problem Solved” since it’s my way of saying “Fixed, let’s move ahead.”

These posts will be somewhat sporadic since there’s not always things to publish. Depending on the subject I’ll either post them on the Tuesday and Friday schedule if they fit the theme or, I’ll give you an extra article(s) that week for your enjoyment. There’s no defined schedule or plans to write new posts, so I’ll write as soon as I have current information to share.
