New Lifestream and Xbox
For the past two days I’ve tried out LifeStream, an aggregator for your various feeds like Netflix, Twitter, etc. I like it. I’m going to keep it. It’ll be more “this is my life” than my blog has been in well over a year; I started making fewer posts, and the ones I made were … Continue reading
A Canceled Poll
This was going to be a poll, but I decided to get rid of it. Tant pis. Instead, feel free to check out WP-Polls, a really snazzy poll plugin for WordPress users.
I Fucked Stuff Up
Oh dear. Dan said that upgrading to WordPress 2.2 was a snap, so I didn’t bother to make any backups of the site files or the database before I upgraded. It turns out that the King Text widget is not compatible with WP 2.2, and without it my entire site design is hosed. So I’ve … Continue reading
Quicklinks on Hold
The quicklinks are going to be temporarily on hold until I can get Postalicious working. I am determined to make this sucker work and then I can do all kinds of things with the quicklinks posts. But meanwhile, it is being standoffish, and I have exhausted all my ideas so I’m waiting to hear back … Continue reading
Quicklinks for 2007-02-06
I’ve unveiled the Valentine’s theme on my site; you can click here to see it. (If you don’t like it, click here to go back to the old one.) It was created 100% by me using an image I bought off iStockPhoto; the fancy post titles are from the Fancy Headlines plugin and the fancy … Continue reading
Tagging the Years
Now that I have got Postie working for e-mail postings, and my theme widget-ready thanks to King Text, I am focusing my full attention on tagging with Ultimate Tag Warrior. I’ve already eliminated categories from my theme, replacing them with tags. Folksonomy is really moving forward in the direction of tags, rather than categories. I’ve … Continue reading
Testing
I am testing my post-by-email function. I’m pretty sure it will work for LiveJournal, and I think it will work on WordPress, but I’m not 100% sure. I don’t really have anything useful to say, I just wanted to try out my email posting! (I am sending this to two addresses, rather than posting to … Continue reading
FireStats
I realized I didn’t have any way of checking stats easily for CyDy Blog (NSFW), so I wanted to find a WordPress plugin that could do it for me. Colleen had recommended a WP plugin called ShortStat, but I thought I would look for other options and I came across the seemingly-robust FireStats. I’ve installed … Continue reading
Perfect Teeth
I went to the dentist today for my six-month cleaning and I had absolutely perfect teeth. I was due for x-rays, and the dentist said those looked absolutely perfect. The hygienist commented that my teeth “don’t keep much tartar” (which I guess is good), and the dentist gave my teeth a very quick glance and … Continue reading
Testing Upgrade
Ooookay…I think I have successfully upgraded to WordPress 2.0. It seems like everything has gone okay. The only thing I am not sure about is the Feedburner stuff; the plugin is not compatible with WP2 and the workaround was a little confusing for me. Hopefully nobody is reading with wp-rss.php or wp-rss2.php directly, because I’m … Continue reading
