Desktop
- Apple Macintosh – I use Macintosh computers. We have quite a few of them floating around the house.
- MarsEdit – From the Red Sweater site, “The best way to write, preview, and publish your blog.” I couldn’t agree more. I use MarsEdit to write every word on this site.
- Espresso – I use Espresso to design and publish pages I don’t manage with my server side publishing system.
- Acorn – I’m no artist, but for the occasional image tweak I use Acorn, the image editor for humans.
- Visio – Ah, yes, this may seem a bit strange since I use Macintosh computers, but Visio is a great diagramming program. Drag, Drop, Done.
- Terminal.app – Yep, ssh and scp are my friends.
Server Side
- Dream Host – My web host. I like them. Give them a try.
- WordPress – My publishing platform. WordPress is very powerful and highly extensible.
- f67.us – My custom URL shortening service. Check out YOURLS if you’d like to roll your own.
Artwork
The artwork on this site has been produced by various artists over its’ lifetime. There are a few folks I’d like to call out.
- Kevin Medeiros – Kevin is a great guy and has an even better eye for design. Over the years he’s contributed a few header graphics, the most recent was the Turkey Core.
- Erik Kochackis – Strange name, great illustrator. Erik is the original artist of my collection of Apple Core’s.
- John Norton – Besides being a great illustrator, John is also the creator of Nortoons, and the Comic Core.
- Komodo Media – I use a few icons from their Social Network Icon Pack. It’s a really nice set, go check it out.
