As I sit here eating my late lunch/early dinner of Rock Hill bread dipped in some olive oil, garlic and balsamic - publicly after noting on Facebook how tasty it is - I'm reflecting on why I do this; constant shout-outs to my favorite places...
In perhaps the greatest pairing since PB & J, Advokate's client Adirondack Audio & Video announces a call to artists for a music-themed art show. Art. Music. It just goes. And what better market for music-themed artwork than music lovers themselves? Adirondack Audio and Video knows music...
I can't even stand how brilliant I am. So I'm kidding, I hope you know. But this little cheat sheet I just put together is a really good one, and I'm excited to share it with fledgling artists so they can learn to be super awesome...

I'm trying to figure out what to do here. I use Wordpress because it seems like a friendly place. It's got a billion ways to trick out a site and make it look different from all the others. It's more up-to-date than my HTML skills...
As I said, I'm more on the design side of the room than the coding side. So, to build up my coding muscles, I'm trying to read up on how to get Google to crawl your site. Seems there's no one simple formula, but the...
