WordPress Magazine Themes

The Best WordPress Magazine Themes Available: Ryan puts together a list of ten magazine style WordPress themes and details the positives and negatives of each of these themes for this list. I am not sure if “The Best” is an appropriate title for the post but I like each and every theme that he points to. Some of the themes listed such as Brian Gardner’s Revolution are paid themes but Revolution is visually excellent and the popularity of the theme and the fact that he is successfully charging for it are both attestations to this model of theme publication. Definitely a post to check out if you are into smooth, clear and versatile themes that can pack a lot of good information into small screen spaces. While you are at it, check out Charity’s “Creating a Magazine Style Theme by Example“.

Digg saturation: Patrick from Blogstorm came up with a way to rank websites using a Digg saturation value that he come up with by searching Google with a specific URI. Apparently Google really likes sites that are Dugg. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=site%3Adigg.com+weblogtoolscollection.com To check your own Digg saturation, just replace weblogtoolscollection.com above with your own blogs’ URI. What is your Digg saturation?

Integrate Drupal with WordPress: These two competing platforms now have a common bond. This Drupal module will allow you to run/administer a WordPress blog from inside Drupal as a module. The author claims that the module is tested with Drupal 5 and WordPress 2.2.1. In looking through the code, I see no reason why it would not work with 2.3 but I have not tested it. So if you are a Drupal user with a WordPress blog or if you are a WordPress user with a Drupal installation, this is your chance to run the roost from one perch. Features include a single level sign on and synchronization of profile data between WordPress and Drupal.

I think this might be the death knell but I do not understand the point behind the other observations. In reading through the commentary, it seems that everyone agrees that Technorati is on the chopping block but the people that were on Technorati’s Pop list and not on the Techmeme Leaderboard have a more negative take on the new product. The epitaphs levelled at Technorati range from “Attacking Technorati’s Stronghold” to the new bandwagon of “Techmeme list heralds the death of blogging“. Duncan claims that taken in context, this means that “ … New verticals (are) on the way“. You can follow the rest of the conversation on Techmeme. The primary theme of all this diatribe is that multiple author blogs have better coverage, content and attention and […]
