I recently got interviewed by Dan Milward for GetShopped.org as part of their 12 Awesome Examples of Custom Post Types article, in particular the innovative ways we’ve implemented them at WooThemes.

I recently purchased the treasure from Bundle Hunt and found the contents to be pretty rad. I’m particulary looking forward to getting to grips with Billings (a invoicing, project management, time tracking app for mac/iPhone), Subernova (online project management tool), and reading the Smashing Magazine ebook on Mastering Photoshop. The Bundle Hunt concept seems similar to the whole MacHeist vibe, and includes some other useful design stuff like icons and WordPress themes.

FlagTag WordPress Plugin

Seeing as how I’m big on getting behind your sports team, I saw an initiative by White Wall Web (Disclaimer: I used to work for them) to get the internet into the World Cup Feva by adding what they call a FlagTag to your site.  I think it’s fantastic, see my FlagTag on the right of the site.  But what most people (who cant code) don’t know how to do is add the code to their website.  So I thought, let’s use my WordPress experience and slap together a plugin.  No code editing, just a simple download and upload, activate the plugin, and choose your flag! It’s that easy.

Download it here or here.
