Wigley and Associates

We’ve created a new blogsite for Cardious, ‘A heart technology company’ based in St. Paul, MN.

Cardious founder and president Jim Pokorney is maintaining a Cardious blog where he’s blogging about the development of their AvA™ Aortic Valve Bypass Graft System.

Northfield web designer Sean Hayford O’Leary worked with Jim on the design and I concentrated on coaching him on how to use the features of WordPress.

The Department for International Development (DFID) is “the part of the UK Government that manages Britain’s aid to poor countries and works to get rid of extreme poverty.”

They’ve contracted with a UK-based colleague of mine, Shane McCracken at Gallomanor, to work with a small group of new DFID staff bloggers who are living and working in five different countries. See Shane’s blog post about the project and the new DFID group blog.

I’m working with Shane to provide the blog coaching, including several how-to screencasts.

Simon Dickson from Puffbox built the DIFD blog site using WordPress. He’s incorporated several unusual — and impressive — features to it. See his explanatory blog post.
