WordPress & SSH Adventures

By now, you probably realize that our blog here is powered by WordPress. For those who are familiar with this open source blogging platform, you might already know about their vast number of features, plugins, and themes. For those of you new to WordPress like myself, there remain quite a few tricky parts to setting up and hosting your own full-featured blog.

When I ran into some trouble setting up the permalinks for this blog, I went digging for answers on google and found out about the “mod_rewrite” permission in Apache that is necessary in order for the “pretty permalinks” to work properly. After consulting several resources such as this one, it was clear to me that in order to fix our problem, I would have to venture into the server with the terminal through the SSH protocol.

Staff (Ken & Wing) Birthday Party Highlights

My birthday is on the 28th of September and coincidentally, Wing’s birthday is on the 27th. So naturally, we decided to celebrate together on Friday, the 26th.

Current Projects Update #1

So let’s see. What are we working on right now?

Prototype development for our first iPhone Application has begun.  We’re still narrowing down the feature list for the initial beta release, but we can tell you that it’s going to be an educational application with some fun and entertaining elements added in to make it shine and sparkle. More details will be available in the near future.

It goes without saying that I’m also trying to write some blog posts to fill this empty void that is our company blog. I’ve just gotten done editing version 1.0 of our company website and condensed its contents for the iPhone specific version to be launched later today.

Hello World!

Welcome to m3media’s blog! I’m Kenneth Law, the founder and CEO of Metamorphosis Multimedia (m3media). You can find out all about me on my personal site, or you can check out my ultra-brief profile on the about us page.  

Documenting everything about the company startup process would have been a neat idea, however, given the amount of tedious tasks involved in building a company from scratch, there simply wasn’t enough time. Rather than pretending we’re at the beginning and backdating posts to fake the process, I’d rather start from right now and move forward, while slowly catching up with what has already come to pass.

I’ll try not to waste too much time talking about myself, or what my company is about. Chances are, if you’re here reading this, you’ve already been to our website or you’re a friend of the family.
