The Resources Mashup

Here are some of the best articles I have stumbledupon this week.

Make Money Online

Personal Development / Self Improvement / Health

Photography / Digital Art

SEO

Social Media

Tech

The Last, but not Least

Week in Review on Kikolani

Related News: New Portfolio Design

While I loved my previous single page portfolio design, I realized that there was a lot of additional content I wanted to add to it that didn’t work with the one page layout, like adding my article writing samples and a better area for my photography.

So after a few months of previewing, customizing, and trying out new themes, I finally found a great theme called London Creative on ThemeForest. So come by and take a look around.

Portfolio Design

I also have started a blog on my portfolio dedicated to freelance, the first articles being Freelance Fridays – a roundup of the best freelance articles of the week. This week’s roundup should be posted sometime Saturday, as I have been a bit under the weather today.

Surprised Kitten

Just in case you have missed it, the cutest video to hit YouTube!

Kristi, you had me worried. I couldn’t believe that you might miss a Friday. Then you came through late in the day. Whew! Home you are feeling better.

The new portfolio design looks great and it seems like there will be much more “branching off.” Thanks for the great links and resources. Many good things to dig into this weekend.

Hey Kristi, you’re a real gem for linking one of my posts, thanks heaps mate.

Also that video of the kitten isn’t working anymore because it was removed due to some copyright issue.

Thanks again, for a great fetching Friday resource.

Hi Kristi,

I’ve just discovered your site and it seems very interesting.

I like the Resources Mashup and the first resource there about plug ins caught my eye right away since I had a plug in issue just yesterday and so did one of my friends with another plug in.

You have a lot of information to digest here.

Being able to watch the kitten video was great. The kitten keeps getting back into the same position and posture. Very cute.
