Last night on Twitter, I was disussing the lack of interaction on my tweets and someone suggested Linkedin was much better for getting more comments, messages and replies. I havent used Linkedin much, but I had been meaning to give it a try in my attempt to find a new project to work on.

I have over 25 years of web experience and recently moved to Somerset for a simpler life. I am looking for a project (possibly Wordpress based) to get my teeth into. I have a vast range of experience from Graphics, Design, Web Development, Copywriting, Web Servers, Cloud Computing and more.

The reason I like Wordpress, is that I started with a website for the local festival, it was running well, but just needed tidying up. I found a new theme and improved all the content and the festival went well.

Then I registered a domain to try and sell my services and developed a theme from scratch and started work on a plugin. This is going live this week and is a mix of pages for the services, with blog posts about the jobs I have done as I do them. I like this combination as it means I can write more posts without the pages being changed.

But this leads me to a number of questions:

What plugin features would you like to see? 
I have developed a basic plugin using a few hooks and subpages, but would like to hear about what should I build to impress you. 

What theme specs are you looking for? 
I have worked with both tailwind css and bootstrap alongside jquery, but again, what would you like to see.

If you have any wordpress roles or projects, lets discuss them. I tend to use cv-library for job searches, so my cv is on there.
