Every community needs a good calendar

Another Alchemy United WordPress plugin coming soon

FYI => In order to expedite a couple ideas/projects I’ve been digging deeper into WordPress custom post types, as well as short codes. I don’t have an official name for it yet but yesterday I whipped up the shell of a new WordPress plugin.

Killington Year Round reaches a higher high

FYI => Big day for Killington Year Round today. The local organization in charge of economic development and tourism contributed their first post to KYR. I also moved the Summer design skin into place.

Two steps forward, one step back

FYI => Today was a double barrel day. In order to make the official press release announcement of VT802.us on Killington Year Round I had to put AU_WPing thought a live “test.”

The latest round of Postling enhancements

Consumed => “Postling Rolls Out New “Suggestion” Features To Help Small Biz Owners Master Social Media” Lora Kolodny on TechCrunch.

VT802.us stalls just short of the starting gate

FYI => Today was supposed to be sprint for the finish line day for VT802.us – The World’s First Vermont-centric URL Shortener. Sprint I did. Unfortunately it was into a 100MPH headwind.

VT802.us almost to public beta

FYI => Decided to tackle one or two more rounds of tweaks and enhancements for VT802.us before I go public beta with it.

AU_WPing does press releases too

FYI – Updated KYR with the latest version of AU_WPing. Added close to a couple dozen publications to the press release list. Next week the press release functionality gets its first live run.

FYI => The social media power tool AU_WPing just received a couple additional tweaky enhancements.

Booyah! Postling blog features Killington Year Round

FYI => Postling.com, the social media authority and uber-sweet SM dashboard/management tool, interviewed me regarding KYR.

Consumed => “Outstanding new features of WordPress 3.1″ on WordPress Arena.

Postling loves Killington Year Round

FYI => Just got off the phone with Julia at Postling. In the next couple days she’s going to turn the phone interview into a blog post.

How SEO made Arianna Huffington even richer

Consumed => “Web Words That Lure the Readers” by Claire Cain Miller on NY Times.

It’s pizza and PRWeb night

The reality of the fast & furious power of AU_WPing is setting a fire under my butt. Time to rev up the PR machine!

Building the brand: Killington Year Round

FYI => The Dew Tour is at Killington Resort this weekend. I’ll be mostly offline, and out and about “workin’ it”. If you want to follow the action:

Four seasons. Many hearts. One love.

Nailing down some of finishing touches for the Killington Year Round beta 2.0 re-launch.

Tis the season to tweak AU_Slideshow

With the roll out of KYR Beta 2.0 just moments away I decided to take a tweak at AU_Slideshow.
