My domain is joncamhi.journalism.cuny.edu. I am using the monochrome theme for its simplicity. I want to have an about page, contact page, resume, clips, and a blog page.
Some plugins I was thinking about: WP resume, audio player, Simple video embedder, Sharethis, tagcloud, and WordPress.com stats.
Good plan. Give some thought as to what the bulk of your content is, in terms of media type, so that you’re certain the theme will help spotlight your strengths.
