This Blog is Built With HTML5 #html5logo
And WordPress, of course. You can build a semantic HTML5 blog using WordPress too. To celebrate, I’ve added the HTML5 logo to my sidebar. I can’t even remember the last time I added a badge to my blog’s sidebar!
You’re excited about HTML5; we are too. You’ve not just been enjoying the HTML5-powered web already — you’re building it! As adoption and inspiration spreads, the web community will find creative ways to apply HTML5 technologies, spark trends, and capture best practices. As momentum builds, we hope you bring this logo along for the ride and paint the world orange.
Orange is nice. I like orange. 🙂

A New Site for St. John’s Cathedral
Last weekend, I launched a new site for St. John’s Cathedral here in Winnipeg.
For those interested in how the site is put together, I’ve included a page titled Using WordPress For Your Church Website where I’m explicitly releasing all the Custom CSS for anyone to use, adapt and share. It’s built around the Toolbox theme we just launched here on WordPress.com but it’s ready to use as a WordPress Child Theme if you’re running your own self-hosted WordPress installation.
