Before I get to meat of the subject, I compare the bread.
I replaced my Nexus 5 with a regular iPhone 6, and have so far lived to tell the tale.
This is a quick guide to the most visible apps on my phone. Which ones enjoy prime real estate?
In this short post, I introduce my CodePen.io profile, and demonstrate how I used CodePen.io to experiment with CSS Flexbox.
In this short post, I enumerate the good, the bad and the ugly about Godus 2.0.4. Don't worry, most of this falls into the first category. Compared the last 1.x patch, there is loads more to like this time.
Progressive Enhancement can spiral out of control with all the different levels of browser-compatibility that may need to be addressed. I attempt to reduce this to just two levels, whilst introducing my latest JavaScript library: noscript.js

I was on holiday in the USA and made an impulsive purchase. :)
A quick look at some issues I was having in Node.JS
A brief justification for selecting GitHub Pages as my blog hosting system, and a quick rundown of how I've used it.
Here I detail the current plan for this site and why I changed my mind about it.
Today I’ll go over the configuration of my MongoDB cluster. As I discovered, provided one reads the documentation, it’s surprisingly easy to get up and running.
This post covers my experience with setting up my very own EC2 just the way I want it. Note that this isn’t the first time I’ve played around with these, but it is the first time I’ve actually been motivated to try and do something productive with them.
In this post, I cover the basic cloud infrastructure I'm using. I also evangelise Amazon Web Services a fair bit. In fairness, ever since Microsoft supported Linux nodes in Azure, I've been pretty tempted to try them out.
