This week I upgraded a new client’s WordPress blog from version 2.6 to 2.9.2. All went just dandy. Then today he emailed me to say that he’d noticed his post excerpts were not appearing where they were supposed to, in single post pages. On closer inspection I noticed that the excerpts displayed fine on the [...]

The Bees Awards officially launched. And I’m on the jury!
2 June 2010 – 8:57 pm
Today I’m excited to announce that I’m a member of the jury for the 1st International Social Media Marketing Awards — the Bees Awards. I must say that I feel very humbled to be in such esteemed company, with some real social media gurus to rub shoulders with, including my wonderful friend-in-blogging and mentor Liz [...]
What can you do with a Facebook fan page??
17 April 2010 – 7:33 pm
What fun can you have with a Facebook fan page? No idea… yet. But I’ve set one up for myself. Please spare a moment to “become a fan“. I’ll post a detailed how-to on my blog once I’ve worked out how to do some “sexy” stuff! addthis_url = ‘http%3A%2F%2Fwww.alistercameron.com%2F2010%2F04%2F17%2Ffacebook-fan-page%2F’; addthis_title = ‘What+can+you+do+with+a+Facebook+fan+page%3F%3F’; addthis_pub = ‘alicam’; [...]
WordPress Loader – A much faster and easier way to get it up there!
9 April 2010 – 11:14 pm
If you’re like me, getting WordPress loaded onto a webserver for the first time is a pain. Some hosting companies use Fantastico, or some other automated way to get the WordPress code uploaded and unzipped on the server, but many don’t. Mine doesn’t. So what people like me have to do is download the ZIP [...]
My latest project – the One Minute Business Checkup
2 March 2010 – 9:02 pm
I’ve spent the last 10 weeks building a site for a client. Well, a web app. It’s called One Minute Business Checkup and it’s 100% my work… programming, DB schema, graphics, Javascript, the lot. I don’t like doing one-man builds like this, as a rule, but this was fun. Check it out. And if you’ve [...]
My Twitter account has been suspended!
14 December 2009 – 9:48 am
Awoke this morning to the discovery that Twitter suspended my account overnight. I’ve sent the relevant appeals out, so stand by for more details. Worried. addthis_url = ‘http%3A%2F%2Fwww.alistercameron.com%2F2009%2F12%2F14%2Ftwitter-account-suspended%2F’; addthis_title = ‘My+Twitter+account+has+been+suspended%21′; addthis_pub = ‘alicam’; Sphere: Related Content
WordPress plugin: Add Categories to Menu
13 December 2009 – 4:03 pm
If you’re using WordPress as a CMS, you may have set up static pages for both a front page (e.g. “Home”) and a page to list your latest blog posts (e.g. “Blog”). I did that today for a client site and immediately realized that in the site’s main menu the Blog link would look a [...]
Hope your Holiday Season is a total GAS!
6 December 2009 – 1:43 pm
This is all the more comical for the fact that it is hot, sunny and summery in Australia at Christmas time. If you don’t like the humour, blame my wife! We’re all class! And for something vaguely more traditional, again by the inimitable Cameron troupe… On a more serious note, may you find at least [...]
The unfair, unbearable burden of turning 18 in Australia
19 November 2009 – 10:28 pm
Coming home tonight, I listened to the ABC radio host chatting with a guest who, almost as a throw-away remark, said something that hit me really hard. I was “exercised in my spirit” to send the following to Lindy Burns, the host of the show. Having taken as long on the email as I did, [...]
Twitter for fun and, ahem, profit.
15 November 2009 – 11:14 am
This week I made a decision. A difficult decision that shouldn’t be. I made the decision to monetize my Twitter account. This post explains my rationale and might have to do for now as a “disclaimer” of sorts. I’d appreciate your feedback, because my “journey” on Twitter may be instructive for your own purposes, but [...]
