Susan’s spookalicious Halloween theme
A few months ago, I mentioned that my wife Susan had gotten her blog up, complete with a pink theme. She’s been pretty busy lately, what with taking care of our three kids, working part-time, and taking graduate classes (whew!). [...]
All WordPress users are encouraged to upgrade to the newest release, WordPress 2.0.4. The new release contains several important security updates, so you are strongly advised to upgrade. In addition to the security enhancements, there are many other small bug fixes, as well.
What are you waiting for? Download WordPress 2.0.4 now!
I know, I know… I haven’t been very active on the blogging front lately. Once again I’ve been sucked into a swirling vortex of job and home projects, with little-to-no time for participating in blogdom. I’ve managed to keep up with most of the latest memes, and I’ve added a few new del.icio.us bookmarks, but there’s been no opportunity to develop any nifty code or write about the subject of the day.
I’ve got eight draft posts in my queue, and three of those are no longer timely, and so I’ll probably end up deleting them. [...]
A couple of buglets snuck by in the WordPress 2.0.3 release. There should be a version 2.0.4 release relatively soon. But in the meantime, check out the WordPress 2.0.3 Tuneup Plugin, by Mark Jaquith. . [...]
The wee hours of the morning saw the release of WordPress 2.0.3. This release fixes a few bugs that have been identified in the past three months, and it also adds some security enhancements.
If you would like a smaller upgrade package, Mark Jaquith has a zip file that contains just the changed files. It’s unofficial, but I’d trust Mark.
Also, if you don’t regularly check your WordPress Dashboard to see when new releases are available, you can also check the project status on Freshmeat.net. [...]
It’s been a long time coming, but my wife, Susan, finally has a WordPress blog. You can check it out at DigitalDivas.net. As you’ll see when you get there, It’s Pink! Susan spent a lot of time adapting some CSS techniques for her site, and I helped her turn her html code into a WP theme.
I’m sure she’ll be posting on a variety of topics, from web design and technology, to current events, to family matters. [...]
And now that I’ve helped out the rest of you who want to automatically generate posts from your del.icio.us bookmarks (with my daily post fixer plugin), I’m turning that feature off here. It was an interesting experiment, but I’ve decided that this isn’t how I want to present that information. Let’s examine the good and bad of the automatic link posts:
As a personal example, my wife has told me that she has been looking at my blog less since I started the automated posts. [...]
Jeremy Zawodny has some thoughts about the possible evolution of Yahoo! Groups.
There are bits of JotSpot (notable Tracker), WordPress, and Flickr that I think could be sprinkled into Yahoo Groups, not to mention Google Maps and/or Wayfaring, Yahoo! Local, Google Calendar, and a few other things.
Jeremy is a sharp guy who keeps his finger close to the pulse of current happenings on the net. [...]
The previous post was the first on this site that was auto-generated by the del.icio.us “daily blog posting” feature. Geof has been doing this for a while, and I was already planning to do something like this on my own eventually, anyhow. But I hadn’t gotten a round tuit yet, and since I ran across a couple of links reminding me about this del.icio.us service yesterday, I decided to try it out. [...]
Web guru extraordinaire, Jeffrey Zeldman, has spent the last 11 years hand-coding his web site and RSS feeds. No more –Zeldman has switched to WordPress. Now I’m even more miffed that I won’t get to attend AEA Atlanta.
So, why did Zeldman choose WordPress? Not because it’s open source. Not because it’s free. [...]
