Onswipe for WordPress @halfpress.com
Anyone who follows my blog (which, to my great shame, I’ve not updated for almost a year) or my twitter feed knows that I am a huge fan of the iPad. This morning I found the new Onswipe plug-in for WordPress that reformats your blog into a swipe-able, accelerator-aware magazine format for iPads… so I thought [...]
halfpress.com: the big overhaul
I’ve been wanting to return to active blogging and more frequent posting of photo galleries for quite some time now. The sysadmin/geek in me also wanted to completely overhaul the halfpress.com blog including finding a new approach to how my galleries are created. I also needed to refresh my approach to online photo sales, not [...]
More about reCAPTCHA
Here’s a nice article I spotted today in my RSS feeds that gives some insight into reCAPTCHA, the system I implemented here on the blog last week. Enjoy! – Aaron P.S. Screw you, spammers.

Again, I leave this here for “historical” purposes… I’ve been working off and on for a week or more on a major workflow automation project for the blog. Let me start off by quickly pointing out what [...]
No, I’m Not Dead & MT Update
No, I haven’t passed away and halfpress.com isn’t dead either. Life has been Busy with a capital ‘B” lately. I’ve got a lot to write about, actually, and want to do the various topics justice in the coming days. Among the various things going on has been the completion of my second MAME arcade (details [...]
So what is halfpress?
NOTE: This is the original “about” from halfpress.com. I’m replacing it with the blog update, but leaving this for “historical” purposes… Half-Press, halfpress, 1/2press? Eh… doesn’t much matter how you write it, I guess. I tend to find halfpress to be the easiest one to type out of the bunch. (halfpress.com, halfpress.net, half-press.com and half-press.net [...]
