Weaknesses aren't always languages or areas of a stack that you don't know. They can areas in which you do know but could be stronger or areas in which you can't control, like time.

Play By The Rules and Be Careful What You Write 14:50

14:50

If you're going to write about WordPress, determine about which you primarily want to write. Is going to be less subjective material more opinionated material? You get to pick the game you want to play. But when you do that, know the rules, play by them, and be careful what you write.

Despite the fact there are more resources that ever for learning how to accomplish what it is you want to accomplish within WordPress, it’s less common to find someone who is facing the same problem under the same constraints with the same voice you have. Write about your work. Include the problems you’re solving, and the thought process that’s going into their solutions. Though you may be describing a common problem, you’ll be describing them from your perspective.…

In this episode, I talk a little bit about what's been going on regarding my current work in the WordPress economy, a heads up on WordSesh, and I answer the following question: I noticed that you and some other WordPress developers tweet about code review of each other code. I'm interesting are you working as freelancers on the same project or different one? Are you asking each other to check your code or it's a requirement from the client? Who is paying for code review? Oh! And for those of you who are fans of rock and roll, I talk about a trip I took a couple of weeks ago to Tupelo, Mississippi and Memphis, Tennessee if for no other reason than just the fun of it. I hope that's alright with you. 🎸 😎…
