Default Can I help somebody?

I was wondering if I could help somebody with installing wordpress, configuring a server or some other technology related stuff. I want to help with anything Linux or Linux Server related. I also want to help with installing a CMS or a Blog, placing adsense on your blog or website and I can also help with small changes on wordpress themes. I want to do this for free for you while I gain experience and communication skills.

Thanks.

Thanks for the PM Niki! New version in 4 days = perfect timing!

I'll get my computer ready to do the installation this week.

I am saving a bunch of files onto an external 250gig USB drive, so I might need some help loading those back on once Ubuntu is installed.

Also, Niki, here is a tricky one for you - do you know how to get Python working on a dreamhost account?

I really want to learn web.py, and the web.py site says DreamHost supports it, but I don't even know where to begin.

I can debug simple to moderately complex php scripts, css stylesheets, and html documents.

If anyone would like some help in these areas, pm me.

Hey, Dan. I found this page on the dreamhost wiki, and I think this could be helpful.

Web.py - DreamHost

Niki or anyone else,

I have extensive experience with wordpress, even having turned it into a membership-based learning environment so PM me with questions.


Thanks!
