The hosted blogging and website services of WordPress.com are suffering some kind of outage this hour. Twitter reports indicate people are getting blank pages or pages are not loading; TechCrunch.com may also be part of the outage. In addition to free blog accounts on WordPress.com, many domains are hosted by WordPress.com, and these are likely to be affected as well.

Self-hosted sites based on the WordPress.org software, such as True/Slant, are not affected.

    About Me

    I'm a software developer and a principal contributor to the technology development here at True/Slant.

    I develop the front and backend site features that make websites work, using PHP, jQuery, MySQL, CSS, XHTML, Javascript, Flash, and AJAX. I also work with WordPress MU and web APIs.

    In the past, I've done software application development and support, mobile solutions, and strategic business development. I worked at Motorola for over a decade. I have an MBA from the University of Miami, and a US Patent. And I've been a real estate agent and mortgage broker.

    Journalism isn't new to me, either - I've been a photographer, photo editor, and occasional writer for university weeklies. It's nice to bring all that together here on True/Slant.
