1. Wordpress Database Backup

Remember that the most important things about your site are its files and its database. ]]> http://www.lettereyemedia.com/start-off-right-with-wordpress/feed/ 0 http://www.lettereyemedia.com/5-reasons-america-doesnt-need-sopa/ http://www.lettereyemedia.com/5-reasons-america-doesnt-need-sopa/#comments Wed, 25 Jan 2012 02:32:06 +0000 Will Lettieri http://www.lettereyemedia.com/?p=4129 1. The Internet Is Not American

As much as a lot of Americans would like to think the Internet is an American institution, it is far from it. It is a product of the world. In fact, censoring and controlling something like the Internet with a bill like SOPA would have been the most un-American thing we could do to our citizens as a nation that boasts of free speech.

2. Start-Ups Would Take A Hit

SOPA would have made it impossible to advertise or conduct business with any website that infringes on the bill's guidelines. This creates a massive barrier for start-up businesses and established businesses alike. ]]> http://www.lettereyemedia.com/5-reasons-america-doesnt-need-sopa/feed/ 0 http://www.lettereyemedia.com/vcard-templates-from-themeforest/ http://www.lettereyemedia.com/vcard-templates-from-themeforest/#comments Sun, 15 Jan 2012 20:29:09 +0000 Will Lettieri http://www.lettereyemedia.com/?p=4037

Beyond Blogging

Aside from being the world's largest self-hosted blogging tools, WordPress has grown dramatically since its first appearance in 2003.

It now serves a variety of complex purposes including social media sites with BuddyPress, creative portfolios, news and review sites, as well as being used for Intranet purposes internally within an organization.
