Let’s Have a Lime

June 29, 2011 by MzD

While we (“adventurously*”) test out and modify the new theme (2011) that ships with WP RC 3.2, we’ve created a child theme, “Have a Lime” – not (so far) radically different than its’ parent 2011, and created a header image with the phrase “Let’s Have a Lime”.

Now what’s all this about you might ask?

Well, I have roots in Trinidad, where liming is a casual social way of getting together, chatting, etc. I grew up in Montreal, so it’s not a direct local scene that I can speak to, but one I have witnessed;) and participated in when in Trini. I mention it, as it reminds me of a bit of twitter (minus the great weather and the drinks of course) – the casual atmosphere, mingled with the gossipy tone, the news that is discussed, and the general sense of community. Of course, on twitter, time is happening at lightspeed, whereas in a face-to-face lime, time is slowed down, relaxed.

One might say in re-designing this site (centuries later**) that this is the approach we want to take with new clients. Meet in a relaxed, casual manner (could be the twitosphere), start having a conversation, discover on where we’re both coming from, and then get down the details. How can we help you make your project shimmer, if we haven’t learned what its all about?

So, let’s have a lime sometime.

These guys are really taking it easy
*WP 3.2 RC is a release candidate, updated to RC 3 moments ago – which is a development version of WordPress. Not recommended for use on lives sites, unless one is adventurous – Tally Ho!
**We’ve been doing this since the last century, and yet our own site has languished for a while, while we execute many exciting projects
