Show In a Box

November 16, 2007 · Comments

Have you seen Show In a Box?. It’s an interesting idea: take a fully packaged WordPress blog with custom themes and all kinds of other stuff already baked in, and you’ve got yourself your own host-able videoblog in a box. This is really interesting, and they have a full page of examples you can check out, should you want to give that a go.

Thanks to Jay Dedman for pointing this out. Pretty neat stuff.

ChrisBrogan.com runs on the Thesis Theme for WordPress

Thesis WordPress theme

Thesis is the search engine optimized WordPress theme of choice for serious online publishers. If you’re a blogger who doesn’t understand a lot of PHP, Thesis will give a ton of functionality without having to alter any code. For the advanced, Thesis has incredible customization possibilities via Thesis hooks.

With so many design options, you can use the template over and over and never have it look like the same site. The theme is robust and flexible enough not only to accommodate a site like ChrisBrogan.com, but also to enable the site to run far more efficiently than it ever has before.

    Thanks for the heads up about Showinabox. I checked out their site and the next day I came across lumiere videos - the combination have allowed me to tap into my "artistic" side and now I have created two lumieres (with two more in the wings) and I am showcasing them using showinabox.

    I hope you will check them out at http://lumiere.videozine.ca
  • i started my site with a free css theme and now am overhauling it. Jeez, i'm a writer not a code person but I love the melding of tech and who the community or different communities now really looks out for one another.

    I guess this is our generation just focused more online and using our online tools to spread offlinee too.

    * I loved your idea of starting projects offline. Most of my clients are still just getting going online anyway.
  • you sometimes keep weird company, but you are a gentleman.
  • Yeah I love Show In A Box. Working on a new theme for it now for my site. Should be launched in a few days. Can't wait.
  • Real World Green, http://realworldgreen.com, my show on practical things you can do to reduce your impact on the earth, runs on Show In A Box.

    right now RWG doesn't use all of the features of the newest version, but this grass roots group has done an amazing job creating this.
