Free Mac App A Day > Site Updates

Woohoo! Thanks to a friend of mine (a.k.a. eddieck), my site now passes the XHTML 1.0 Transitional markup test. For those of you who don’t know exactly what that means, it essentially means that the code is clean by the World Wide Web standards! See for yourself:

FreeMacAppADay Passes XHTML!

Thanks again to eddieck for helping me out on this, and I’ll be back posting in no time.

Let me just start by telling you guys it’s been tough to keep up as long as I have. I’m trying my hardest, but this time I had reason to miss a few posts. I screwed up the install of Clickheat (a cool little add-on that lets you see exactly where users click on your site). Some of you may have noticed the error on the top of the page (and I noticed the fact that I messed up my functions.php file so bad I couldn’t even log into the admin page). But anyway, it all seems to be good now. I fixed the file over FTP, and we’re running again. In the meantime, I updated to the latest version of WordPress, as well as some other smaller plugin updates.

But speaking of plugins, I realized I never formally introduced the new Categories system. As you probably can tell, all of my posts are categorized, and as such, the list of categories became pretty long. While searching for a new way to present my categories, I found WP-Cumulus, which puts all of them in a 3-dimensional sphere. I’d like to hear what you think of it (in the comments on this post), because I haven’t fully decided whether to keep it or not yet.

Finally, I have one last proposal. Over the last few days I’ve been messing with my iPod touch a lot (exploring the immense amount of applications available for the most part), and came up with an idea. I was thinking I could possibly do a Sunday iPhone/iPod App Review as a departure from my normal all-Mac schedule. I may or may not try that this weekend, you’ll just have to wait and see. But, if you have any ideas, please don’t hesitate to let me know.

Thanks for your patience, and you’ll hear back from me soon. As a matter of fact, I’m searching for some Turkey Day freeware as we speak!

I’m working on it. Really. I’ve just been bogged down with stuff to do. I’m currently finding more awesome apps (only the best for you guys, haha), and will be posting again soon. Hopefully by the end of the weekend I’ll have some posts accumulated. Also, thanks to mrjim for his comment on my “Sorry Folks” post a bit earlier. It made my efforts seem worthwhile, so I can’t thank you enough. But anyway, stay tuned. We’ll be back soon.

Edit: 10/28/08: I’m starting to build up several posts here, but I’d rather have a long wait then consistent posts than a short wait between every post. Stay tuned…

Hey there, it’s been a while! Sorry for the recent lack of posts, but I’ve been completely bogged down with schoolwork, and need some time to accumulate reviews (so I won’t have to write one every day, which is pretty tough to do–instead I can just write 5 or 6, so I always have one ready to post every day). Anyway, I should be ready to start posting again in October, and the wheels should start turning on my side possibly even tonight. Hold tight, and you’ll be hearing from me soon!

Whoops. I was messing around with a nice little site addon the other day, and ran into some problems. All of those problems are fixed now, so we should be set, and daily posts will continue tomorrow. Sorry about that.

Recently I read an article that was titled “32 Reasons that PCs are better than Macs”.  The contents were debatable, so I figured I’d write a response article.  This will take a few days, so expect a short period of no posts.  I’ll keep you guys posted.  Thanks for your patience.
