“In Context” IDE
Talking to a friend of mine today. He brought up the concept of in-context interactions where the user isn't given an option to fail. Where I recognized the pattern. I realized he was applying to a programming IDE concept. This is definitely something to look at.

WordPress
Recently I've found WordPress a very useful tool for prototyping content for websites and developing the relationships between website projects. I recently created a new blog, CWA Labs and upgrade the Cortex Games website to WordPress.
The good:
- Administration interface is simple. I love how simple it is. Very powerful. A couple minor things I'd change but again I'm just prototyping here.
- Widgets. Loving the widgets. Custom HTML, built-in RSS. Social Media.
- Well organized code and structure.
The Bad:
- Theme and design integration is frustrating and not as simple as it could be. Maybe this is a problem I can help solve in the future. I've ended up using the same design for Cortex as this site because I can't find anything desirable nor do I want to build a new one for a prototype.
Recently I've set up a copy of WordPress to utilize ObjectForm's database wrapper to much success. Already can see gains. Maybe there's more WordPress stuff in my future.
