  • JavaScript Date.toMysql()

    This just came in handy for me. It extends JavaScript’s Date() object and adds a toMysql() function for when you need to convert a JavaScript Date object to a MySQL Datetime format (in UTC). Date.prototype.toMysql = function(){ var date = this; date = date.getUTCFullYear() + '-' + ('00' + (date.getUTCMonth()+1)).slice(-2)...

  • Devtrepreneur

    I always feel a bit guilty calling myself an “entrepreneur”. I mean I do run a successful company which I’ve bootstrapped myself (“successful” here meaning that it is a profitable lifestyle business where I can afford to hire a few extra folks to help spread the load). But I don’t...

  • 2012 Year in Review

    So it’s that time of year again to look back, take stock and generally be thankful for another year. This year has been very mixed for me with up’s and down’s, however the one thing that has stuck out for me this year is how busy I’ve been. ThemeZilla &...

  • Complexity Exists. Make it Clear.

    I’ll always remember being taught how transistor switches worked in my Technical Studies class at high school. I just didn’t get it. I couldn’t wrap my head around how it worked. Then my teacher sat us down and explained it to us in such a simple way that everything just...

  • Nivo Slider: The Story So Far

    I should start this article by explaining the fact that I am not a born and bred entrepreneur. I’m a developer at heart who has literally stumbled upon “success” just as I was beginning to get interested in the whole business side of the web. I’ve been wanting to write...

  • The Next Chapter

    For the last 3 years (excluding my final year of uni in-between) I’ve been working as a Software Engineer with a company that specialise in North Sea Oil and Gas. While the job has been enjoyable enough, as time has gone on, one thing has become very clear. I don’t...

  • BioThemes Closes

    A year after starting development work on BioThemes, and about seven months in business, John O’Nolan and myself have decided to shut down BioThemes. We both feel this is the right decision and neither of us feel upset that we’ve reached this point. As John has explained: Essentially Gilbert’s focus...

  • Nivo Slider WordPress Plugin

    So last week I launched the official Nivo Slider WordPress Plugin. It’s been a while in the making so it’s good to finally get it out. It’s also the first step towards the Nivo Slider Pro package, so this one isn’t free. However I do think that $15 is a...
