“I’m a lousy programmer. However, I am less lousy than I was last year, and...”
– Somehow, I don’t think Scott has anything to worry about, but it’s got me thinking.  I’m going to start using GitHub and Bitbucket more.  Any crap that is sitting in my dropbox repos that I feel (kind of) confident with, I’m putting up there.  Let the criticism flow.

Umbraco 4 lives on
Although I didn’t get the opportunity to go to the annual Umbraco meetup this year, what with a big project I’m working on, I have been following the events on the #cg12 hashtag on Twitter.  And boy, am I glad I did.
