Blogging, WordPress

I cherish the ability to communicate and I try to praise and imitate those who have the ability to communicate ideas lucidly and with alacrity. With that intent in mind, here are the Ten Reasons to choose WordPress. Aimed at the non-technical, could-be blogger, I could not have created a more succinct and convincing list myself. I first found WordPress back when b2 was still alive, and had the WordPress bug bite me the minute I downloaded the zip file. I have not looked back since. What are your reasons for using WordPress?

Blogstheme.com WARNING

responses

I would like to warn readers and WordPress users to NOT download themes from sites that have not developed the themes themselves. I urge news sites to link back to the original theme author’s download to keep things safe and consistent. There are too many sites out there distributing “premium WordPress themes for free” and their intentions are not good. This particular warning is thanks to an astute reader who pointed out another such site called blogstheme.com. They also provide “premium WordPress themes for free” but have modified the footer to suit themselves. The “WordPress” link in the footer of every theme distributed by that site links back to blogstheme.com and the downloads are not pristine as intended by the designers of the themes. The footers are also tainted with sponsored links that the original authors did not put there. I see a whole bunch of Small Potato’s themes on […]

LinkyLoo, WordPress Plugins

Andrew Rickmann recently launched a neat new site called Fun With WordPress to showcase some of his WordPress projects. One of the first tools he has published is called Fun With Plugins. The tool acts like a plugin wizard, and after you answer several questions, the tool generates a downloadable plugin file. One of the things I like about this tool compared to similar ones is the automatic namespacing, and support for some of the more advanced things plugin authors take advantage of including localization and admin menus. Future versions promise Ajax support, style support, client side scripting, and an automatically generated WP Extend readme file. Be sure to check out the tool and let Andrew know how he can make it even better.
