Technology

Geekmade is powered by Wordpress and has a custom template built and designed by me, originally based on the Sandbox theme. The theme uses Microformats and valid XHTML (the CSS will not validate as it uses browser specific rules for some design elements). It has a MySQL database and is hosted on Dreamhost, which is a green host.
