Updated: Link should work now. Sorry.
Google Docs just created a new little feature that allows you to create and publish web-forms that will then feed into a Google Docs spreadsheet, which will help you analyze the captured data.
Wanting to test it out, I figured I’d create a short, five-question survey that will help me better [...]

We’re coming up on WordPress theme changing time. It could happen today. It could happen tomorrow. It could happen next week. But it’s coming.
To prepare for it, I’m updating our base install of WordPress from 2.2 to 2.3, which from what I gather, is more of an update than that miniscule version change would suggest. [...]

As often as possible, I provide links and summations to the best of that day’s web. The links are filed them away in a little category called “Asides” and they get stuck in the sidebar on the homepage, in a box titled “Links of the Day.” Over the course of this year, I’ve linked to [...]

It took us seven months, but the “wedding” of Dawn and Kyle is finally over. As most of you probably know, Dawn and I eloped back in April (four-twenty-what-what!). Because our parents weren’t invited, we thought we’d let them throw us a little family-only “marriage party.” Unfortunately, Dawn’s family lives in Chicago and mine live [...]

Your friend and mine, Mr. Adam Champion, turns 30 years old today. I’ve know the man for pretty much all thirty of those years, and what with his wonderful new wife, his wonderful new job, and his still wonderful friends and family, I’ve never known a more successful human being.

Talk about a quiet summer and early fall here on Fluid Imagination! Geezum crow.
When you compare the number of posts last summer (June, July, and August) to this past summer, it’s kind of ridiculous how slow it’s been around here, especially when you factor in the notion that last summer I was the only one [...]
