November 13, 2016 by Demian Seiler

I was fortunate enough to speak at WordCamp Orlando 2016 during the "Beginning WordPress Development" workshop.

Checkout the slide deck from my talk if you want a quick and easy way to get started. … [Read more...] about My WordCamp Orlando 2016 Talk

Android Finally Gets a Chance

June 7, 2015 by Demian Seiler

I have been labelled a fan boy of Apple products before. That’s fine. It let’s me know who knows me, and who doesn’t. If you really knew me, you would know I do indeed very much love Apple products, but I also hold no loyalties to any technology. As of today I am officially using Android devices for almost ALL of my mobile experiences. And so far, I am well pleased. … [Read more...] about Android Finally Gets a Chance

Life Without Cable

March 1, 2015 by Demian Seiler

I cut cable several years ago, and up until recently I have been pretty content with the decision. We ended up spending some money on Netflix and Amazon prime for regular TV. And then because I am a baseball fan, I paid for access to the MLB.tv subscription. This has really worked well for us, and overall we have been happy using the Chromecast, Apple TV, and XBOX devices to run these internet services through. … [Read more...] about Life Without Cable

Online Friends Are Real

February 24, 2015 by Demian Seiler

A number of years ago, before the world of social media, the idea of having a friend that you met online and never in person, was considered weird. In fact, many dismissed any friendships I had from the internet as not being real. Can you imagine? Well, as someone that has been a netizen since the beginning, and even before that a citizen in the BBS realm, I can promise you these friendships may have a different dynamic, but can be every bit as real as an in-person friendship. … [Read more...] about Online Friends Are Real

Wanting To Love Google Glass

February 8, 2015 by Demian Seiler

It has been about year since I purchased my Google Glass, and I thought maybe I would provide a bit of an update.  I recall when Google Glass was announced I was very keen to try it out.  I mean, what self respecting geek hasn’t wanted to have a computer on their face.  My main problem was, the price they were selling it for.  It was a very steep price indeed and one I took a very long time to work up to shelling out.  Other issues I had, also had to do, with the technology itself.  While I did … [Read more...] about Wanting To Love Google Glass

Rockets Into Space X

January 15, 2015 by Demian Seiler

It is no secret that I would love to move away from Florida to some place that is cooler, more mountainous, and maybe even has a ski season.  The beach is nice and all, but I really only like the beach in the early morning and in the evening.  The ground is too flat, and the lakes stink from the annual lake growth dying off.  And then the worst part of Florida.  The heat.  It is oppressive, and seems to last for ages.  Someday I will leave this humid home of the swamp and reptiles and go north. … [Read more...] about Rockets Into Space X

iPhone 6 Plus Purchased

October 3, 2014 by Demian Seiler

So I pulled the trigger on my iPhone 6 plus this morning.  Apple's sight says that it will ship in 3-4 weeks.  I am hoping the rumors I have been hearing of Apple shipping way sooner than that are true.  I opted for the Space Grey 64Gb model. My boys and I ran out to the local Apple store this evening so I can actually hold the iPhone 6 Plus in my hands and I was mostly impressed.  I was surprised to see it is very thing, almost too thin to be honest.  It is a good more more narrow than my … [Read more...] about iPhone 6 Plus Purchased

SOPA and Protect IP Are Scary

November 18, 2011 by Demian Seiler

I love the internet.  No really, I LOVE the internet.  It provides commerce, education, music, video, and tools for me and most of the connected world.  The food I provide for my family is paid for by the work that I do on the internet.  I am usually not keen to get too political on my little slice of the net here, but I would ask that you view the following short video about the Stop Online Piracy and the Protect Intellectual Property acts.  This is a real eye opener. PROTECT IP / SOPA … [Read more...] about SOPA and Protect IP Are Scary

Google Makes Advanced Changes

November 2, 2011 by Demian Seiler

Looks like Google is making more changes to their search results again.  While every company puts out new releases and with these changes can come modifications to the UI, when google makes a change it can have a pretty big impact on people who get very used to the screen being a certain way.  If you recall, when Google rolled out the "instant" search technology, which I admit I love, it also removed the bottom search box that if you use the new "instant" search you really wouldn't need … [Read more...] about Google Makes Advanced Changes
