I&#8217;ve known Deke for a while and as you can see from the video, we used to commiserate regarding a certain publisher.<\/p>\n<p>Deke&#8217;s a great guy and has had an awesome career run. I&#8217;m happy to see that he&#8217;s still finding success. Folks, he writes the best Photoshop books out there. Period.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Second.<\/strong> I&#8217;ve been working on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wambooli.com\/dic\/\">Dictionary<\/a> again! I&#8217;ve added lots of new code, plus about 70 new words. It continually amazes me how many words are not in the Dictionary. So I add them. Thanks to those of you who have suggested the new words, either intentionally or by searching for them.<\/p>\n<p>The new code I&#8217;ve written allows for &#8220;best matching&#8221; type searches. So when you type in a term that&#8217;s close to an existing term, the dictionary will attempt to find it. I&#8217;m still refining things, but my goal is to make the Dictionary smarter.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Third.<\/strong> I continue my double-blogging duty, both here on Wambooli thrice weekly as well as at the PC Live website, with my 5-times-a-week blog, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pclive.com\/blog\/\" target=\"other\">For PC&#8217;s Sake<\/a>. Check it out, if you haven&#8217;t already.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, the PC Live company is located underwater right now. Yes, they&#8217;re in Iowa and their headquarters were deluged by the rising rivers of the American heartland. I don&#8217;t know what the current status is, but the company remains on-line and helping folks, just at another location. I hope that things dry out soon for PC Live. They&#8217;re good folks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lots going on here, so this blog post is designed to keep you up-to-date!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-110","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-main"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wambooli.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wambooli.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wambooli.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wambooli.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wambooli.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=110"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.wambooli.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wambooli.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=110"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wambooli.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=110"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wambooli.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=110"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
