Anyone who is a Wordpress nerd will probably have read this, but I am sharing it anyways.

I haven’t actually written my own plugin in a couple of years, but I intend to! Just you watch…
Also, this made me laugh
Use WordPress as a CMS
- Install WordPress — no plugin needed
- Publish a new post

2009 Open Source CMS Report Released
We’re happy to see WordPress recognized again as a strong CMS option for publishers. The free 96-page report is available at CMSWire.

The kids had a great week with Gramma. They swam every day, were really good for her, and got along well. I took a bunch of shots this weekend, tried to pick out the best ones and not deluge the post with everything.

First of all, security update for WordPress -> 2.8.2
Apparently there were some naughty holes left open here and there. It happens.. glad the team can move so quickly to get the fixes out! Imagine a proprietary company, like, say Microsoft… or heck, even Apple… it takes them way too long (in this internet world) to get fixes out.

Finally, a FireBug solution for non-Firefox browsers!
Its not a plug in, so it only works for sites that you have access rights to hook in a JS include, but for development purposes, I’m stoked.
I use Safari for the majority of my browsing and such, so i am annoyed when I want to simply test padding/margin spacing on the fly or whatever, I have to fire up Firefox. Now hopefully I won’t have to.
I have yet to implement it but first thing when I get home….
Thanks for Tyson for the heads up!
