Many people think that Blogger lacks in all of the extra goodies you can add to other platforms like WordPress , but it simply isn't true.

This trend has created a massive market for professional, high quality premium themes.

Build a Complete Website. On an iPad.

Let’s take a look at how (or indeed if ) it’s possible to design and build a website entirely on an iPad. We’ll use a variety of apps to conceive, wireframe, design, code and deploy a simple HTML web page.
