“Cameron is truly a WordPress magician, and I am so happy to have connected with him for a recent website project for a high-level client. First, he jumped right on to help me meet a tight deadline with total empathy and insight into developing a practical and seamless workflow. Second, his knowledge of WP is exceptional, as are his teaching skills. While I'm proficient at WP, his level of expertise is just what I needed to troubleshoot the issues I was having with my WP tools and template to deliver on the client's needs. He's easy to work with, and his immediate support and positive, warm attitude helped me relax and turn in the assignment on time. I am ecstatic that I have found my go-to WP partner for my clients' WP sites and look forward to working with him on many more projects. He's a true professional and a great colleague! You can count on him while having fun conversations and keeping your eye on project goals and deadlines. Thank you, Cameron! ”

Chris Lydon Interview: Born Again in Blogspace: the Clark Community Network
Chris Lydon, Harvard
Cameron Barrett’s rollout of the new Wesley Clark blog confirms the news that the modern presidential campaign is, at the core, a software production house. The Clark Community Network is a fascinating and, I say, admirable piece of work It’s a very advanced exercise in simulating Wesley Clark’s idea and ideal of communitarian democracy.
