Adam Merrifield

a picture of me
I am a web designer, theme designer, professional photographer and internet personality. I make many pretty things and I write a lot of content for the internet.

I am one of those guys that, because of the industry I am in, need to be connected at all times. At any given moment you'll find me posting on a forum, updating with twitter, Digging things worthy of attention, uploading pictures, or tagging cool sites.

here i am

seyDoggy Systems:
This is home base, the corporate headquarters, the hub, if you will, seyDoggy.com.

seyDesign news:
these are the RapidWeaver related posts that originally appear in the seyDesign.com blog

Uploads from seyDoggy:
these are the pictures that I upload to flickr

Merrifield Photography:
as a professional photographer I my camera ready at Merrifield-Photography.com.

delicious.com/seydoggy:
these are the websites I want to share or revisit later on. I just tag them on delicious.com.

what i am

I am the owner and operator of seyDoggy Systems, a small theme, code and design outfit based in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. We primarily develop web based technologies but have begun to dabble in the desktop realm.

what i do

I code like a fool. I design like a fool. I am happiest when I can split my time between the two (though I tire of Photoshop faster then I do TextMate or Terminal), and somehow I have managed to etch out a living doing so.

Define your RSS Feed title

RapidWeaver Page inspector panel

From our launch announcement on the RapidWeaver forums came some kind and encouraging words as well as some great suggestions on how to improve our service. One user, ryanbsmith, suggested we include the origins of the original post, so we did. That brings us our very first RapidWeaver tip since, by looking at the site titles that now appear under the post headings, it is clear that not everyone gives their RSS feed an appropriate title.

RSS Feed Settings: Title

The RSS feed settings of a blog page in RapidWeaver can be a bit confusing (View > Page Setup > Plugin Settings). The outcome of these settings is not immediately obvious to the site developer so they are often neglected or inappropriately used. The “Title” field should be a unique name the accurately reflects the origin of the RSS feed. For instance, if jimbob.com had a blog page (which it doesn’t), then an appropriate RSS Feed title would be “Jim Bob’s Blog” or “Jim Bob’s News” or “News from jimbob.com”… you get the idea?
