WordPress.org

I’ve been using wordpress for almost 3 years now, and I’m a little embarassed to admit I know next to nothing about how it works. Recently, I’ve signed up on wordpress.org, and after some procrastinating, I’m starting to learn the ropes behind this amazing publishing engine.

Decisions

The post today is more for people in my age bracket. Have you ever wondered about how your parents got where they are today?
