Robert Hodgen’s personal day-to-day blog.

Welcome to my personal blog. Both blog posts and my tweets will show up on my blog, just a little something to keep you up to date. Anyhow, checkout my RSS feed and my portfolio.
Blog: Just updated my portfolio website

I just updated my portfolio website (http://roberthodgen.com) to reflect my new age and replaced the Blog section with Sites, a listing of all my current websites.

Blog: New Blog Design

A while ago I made a portfolio that I put up on roberthodgen.com, I liked the design a lot, seeing as how its clean, so I wanted to adapt that to a Wordpress them for my blog. And that’s exactly what I spent some time on yesterday and today.

I wanted to have a common theme between the two website (my portfolio and this blog) and I think I’ve achieved that with this new Wordpress theme.

Blog: Made it to Tallahassee

After spending a few hours on the road looking at nothing except for what you see below, I’ve finally made it to Tallahassee for the Srping 2010 term at Florida State University. Looking forward to orientation, moving into my dorm and starting classes later this week.

Blog: I’m on Google Wave

For anyone else who has a Google Wave account my address is roberthodgen [at] googlewave [dot] com. I’ve got to say I’m very interested to see how Google Wave works with people other than friends and family.

If you also have a Google Wave account I won’t mind a random wave.

Blog: Back home from WWDC 2009

WWDC 2009 Entrance

I’m back home after a week of traveling and sessions at Apple’s 2009 World Wide Developers Conference. WWDC was just as fun as it was last year and in my opinion more informative. The sessions I attended at WWDC added greatly to my knowledge of the iPhone SDK and the rest of the Mac development cycle. I attended this year’s WWDC courtesy of Apple’s Student Scholarship Program.

After leaving San Francisco late to catch a red eye flight to Chicago, I got stuck in Chicago for all of Saturday. That was alright though, I got a chance to head downtown Chicago and grab a bite to eat at Carson’s (a great rib place). Oddly my MacBook Air broke (or stopped turning on) in the hotel my last night on the road. Luckily my MacBook Air is being fixed at my local Apple store under the warranty.

Check my Apple-related blog OS X 411 for more pictures from WWDC 2009.

Blog: The last month or two…

If you follow my Mac blog, OS X 411, you might have noticed I haven’t posted much in the last few months, in fact I skipped April all together. I usually try to post at least once per month just to keep the blog current and readers informed. It isn’t that I’ve ran out of stuff to write about, I’ve actually got a good deal of material (like an Intel X25-M SSD in a Mac Pro). Finding time to write about this stuff is another thing.

Now that I’m out of my college classes for the summer I should be able to find more time to write for all my blogs and work on more projects.

Blog: New Domain – Hodgen.me

That’s right! A new domain, Hodgen.me (my last name). I will eventually move most of my other site RobertHodgen.com over to Hodgen.me with subdomains like Robert.Hodgen.me, or Apps.Hodgen.me, etc, etc.

Currently (as of March 2009) I’m in the process of working on the theme, the new theme is still in development and will continue to be in development until I post something about it here. Once the theme is completed I’ll probably move everything over.
