Be a Web Designer!

web-design

Mungkin inilah jalanku, setelah lulus kuliah sempat beberapa hari galau karena saat orang tua menginginanku untuk menjadi PNS, aku lebih memilih untuk bekerja freelance yang tidak terkekang rutinitas. Karena aku tidak mau terbelenggu dengan aturan.

Seminggu kemudian aku udah mulai bekerja sebagai graphics and web designer di salah satu perusahaan yang bergerak dalam developer website user generate content sekaligus web social media. Dan hari ke hari pun aku mulai yakin kalau inilah jalanku. Read the rest of this entry »

WordPress 2.9.1 has been released, and is now available for downloads. This release fixes several minor issues, and the bugs which caused problems with scheduling posts and pingbacks. Upgrade is not really necessary unless you are facing any of the issues listed here.

Another interesting fact shared by Ryan Boren is that WordPress 2.9 has already clocked a million downloads till date, now that is really good. If you have not yet upgraded to WordPress 2.9, read my earlier posts describing some of the best features in WordPress 2.9 or visit this entry on WordPress Codex.

You can download WordPress 2.9.1 from here or use the automatic upgrade feature to upgrade from the admin dashboard.

Motivate yourself to Blog!

These are articles I’ve read recently that I found particularly valuable. They are all from blogs I read regularly. As someone who writes a blog, I know it is also essential to read a lot of blogs. I get questions from professionals and business owners about how to get started blogging, and this is always one of the first things I say: read blogs!

This is the number one way to learn what works, what doesn’t and what YOU want to write about. I recommend anyone interested in blogging should spend a month or so just reading other blogs. Subscribe, comment, spend some real time. Do this specifically in the space you want to occupy. For example, if you want to write a blog about real estate in your particular market area, search people up and find out who’s already doing that. Subscribe to their blog, comment them, read plenty of articles. Take note of the design of their sites. Who is hosting these sites? What things do you like, dislike, and what can you improve upon?

Life Changes, Life Takes You to Places, something to reflect on

Daily life is unstoppable. Moreover, it is also unpredictable and fast changing. About a year and a half ago, I can never tell what my life would be during that period of time. At that time I was unemployed, finishing my thesis, and trying to do some freelance jobs just to survive. I thought that I’d simply finish my master degree and try my luck by going seriously at the freelance business market. I couldn’t think of working a full time job for a big company or even marriage. The only thing I have in mind is that those things will come after a few years. Read the rest of this entry »
