Tags are coming to WordPress soon as part of the core. This, to me, is both a good thing and a potential complication. It’s good because suddenly WP users won’t have to rely on plugins to tag their entries. The potential complication that could make things a bit more… sticky is whether or not the [...]

Screenshots
I really, really, really wish that folks who release WordPress themes and plugins would include useful screenshots that actually show what the theme looks like or what the plugin actually does. At the very least, it would be nice if they took the time to write a detailed description of the plugin. I always skip [...]
Trimmed
I’m not sure how long it will stay, but I’ve got a new theme up. It’s hopefully a bit simpler to look at, and the way it’s built, it forced me to turn off a number of plugins. This should, in theory, allow the site to load quite a bit more quickly and hopefully eliminate [...]
Coming Changes
Dang it. I’ve learned my lesson. It is possible to have too many toys, especially when some of those ‘toys’ involve badly written code.
Sometime in the course of the next week, I think I will be giving Writer’s Blog an overhaul. For starters, I’m going to trim my number of plugins being used down to a [...]
Text Control Broken
Frack.
One of my favorite WordPress plugins – Text Control – is broken with the update to WordPress 2.1.3. Unfortunately, I didn’t notice it until this morning, so it’s probable that my blog was broken all day yesterday. I’ve no idea if this plugin is still being supported – I certainly hope it is because all of my entries are formatted using [...]
Geekware - Introduction
Today I’m starting a series of entries on some of the software that I use on a daily basis, things that make my life a lot easier and simpler and allow me to do just about anything I want and need to from just about anywhere. In this series, I’m going to talk about a [...]
Much Ado
I’m brain-burned today. Feels like someone aimed an unhealthy dose of microwaves right at my cranium and set it on ‘Well Done.’ Boom – crispy critterized brain goo.1 So much I wanted to get done today and so little actually accomplished. I supposed I should be more careful in the future to actually try to [...]
Courtesy
It kind of bugs me – I’d really wish that, when users leave bug reports and such for plugin and theme authors, that those authors would then at least acknowledge the receipt of those bug reports and give some sort of feedback as to the status of correcting those bugs, even if it’s just to say, “Hey, [...]
Site Statistics
Strange – over the past two or three days, my site statistics have spiked. Already today I’ve received 319 unique hits, nearly all from unknown referrers – and I’m really not sure why. The vast majority of these hits seem to be directed at my Book Love entry from a few days ago. Again I’ve no clue as to [...]
WordPress Crosspost Plugin
WordPress has all kinds of nifty little crosspost plugins now. With one click of a button, anything I post here will automatically and simultaneously be posted on Xanga and LiveJournal, as well. So allow me to add another item to my WordPress wishlist – a WordPress to WordPress crosspost plugin. Why would I ever want something like [...]
