WordPress 2.4 Admin Preview: Jordan built up a mockup of the new WordPress 2.4 admin backend. Some of the features work, some of them do not. However you can still get a good idea of what it will look like in 2.4 and where the admin redesign is headed. Via Email. Also, TubeTorial has a video walkthrough of the new admin interface. [EDIT] Please be mindful of the fact that this is a cursory glance at unfinished work on the WordPress admin interace and nothing else. Please read Matt’s comment.

9 WordPress admin themes: There aren’t a lot of developers and designers working on admin themes for WordPress and I was really pleasantly surprised to find this list on welovewp.com. This posts lists nine themes for the administration back end of WordPress. Some of them I had seen before such as Tiger and Spotmilk, but there were a few that were new to me. Josh (I am assuming that Josh wrote the above post, this is why an about page is so important and posts should list authors) has included thumbnails and small reviews for each of them. WP Tiger Spotmilk JS Spotmilk Planet X7 afd WordPress2 WordPress NiceAdmin WordTunes2 Shuttle Digg Barunio Unfortunately, two of the admin themes, Digg and WordTunes2 are MIA but I did manage to dig up one more that should be mentioned. If I missed a couple, please leave a comment and I will add […]

Filter My RSS is a very useful, simplistic service that allows you to create filtered feeds (from existing feeds) using keywords. I have used something of the same nature on various other services but this is a once stop shop and it is very easy to use. Also, considering the fact that the filtered feed URI can be hand crafted and the simplicity of the service, I am assuming that it can scale very well. This is a classic example of an itch scratch software that can be useful to others as well. Here is the WeblogToolsCollection.com default feed, filtered for the keyword WordPress.

Top 10 Tips for New Bloggers From Original Blogger Jorn Barger: In many of my daily reads, I come upon an article or a link that makes me go Huh?!? “Original Blogger” Jorn Barger gives us his Top 10 Tips for new bloggers. Blogging has evolved a lot since he coined the term and intended it to be no more than a list of interesting links. Still, this post in Wired gives us an insight into what the original Weblog first was intended to be and prompted me to think about how it has evolved over the years. To me a blog is so many things at once that it is difficult to classify and the diversity of the term and the variety of purpose is what makes blogs so interesting to me. What is your blog to you? What purpose does it serve?

Yahoo! Shortcuts for WordPress is a plugin much like Adaptive Blue that allows you to automagically embed relevant links into your WordPress blog with information about terms on your blog posts. Information for the terms such as company names and tickers, locations, news and product names is determined by Yahoo! and in some cases, Yahoo! search is used to enhance the content. They have also published a tutorial to tweak the generated content. I like the ability to map a location and the ability to link to Flickr photos. Check out the full list of features and the download location here. Download Squad was unimpressed with the features of the plugin. Disclosure: Adaptive Blue is an advertiser on this blog.

Ministério da Cultura: Brazilian Ministry of Culture uses WordPress to manage their site. I really like the way they have put together various features and plugins to make the site more usable. Since I was introduced to BRIC, I have started to notice how the BRIC countries have started to become more involved in online media and publication.

The Next Social Network: WordPress Nice article on WordPress as the next Social Network with a look at blogs being more important than an integrated social networking space. I personally like blogs better than any of the other social networking tools that I use but they serve their own purpose. I would have to work harder to achieve the same results as LinkedIn if I were to use a blog for that purpose. I guess if I were to look for the next killer app, which these alpha users seem to be doing, I would be looking at blogs (and WordPress) as well.
