Corel’s WordPerfect Lightning Integrates with WordPress: Corel told Read/WriteWeb that “tens of thousands of people” have downloaded and tried WordPerfect Lightning so far. The impending update (which goes live tomorrow morning) will add integration with WordPress, enabling users to repurpose content for their blogs. Corel told us that with WordPress’ open SDK and strong support for images, it makes it easy for Lightning users to blog information they’ve collected. Lighning is a web and desktop content aggregator from Corel that was launched in February.

Wizard of WordPress: Speaking of Matt and WordPress 2.2, CNET’s Rafe Needleman sits down with Matt for a video interview and delves into a lot more than just WordPress. The interview is divided into two parts. The first part, linked above, deals mostly with blogging in general, money from blogging, US candidate blogs Matt’s opinions on the blogosphere. The second part deals more with WordPress, new version 2.2, widgets, Web 2.0, Akismet and the like. The title for the second interview really threw me off and I won’t ruin the surprise any further. Matt is a really personable and articulate video interviewee and I am sure his presentations are just as much fun to attend. Every time I listen to him speak on almost any topic about the web, his knowledge and his stance really complement each other.

MyBlogLog to Rebrand and Make Significant Changes: I believe that this is good news. Yahoo is going to rebrand MyBlogLog and they will make some effort to remove offensive photos, remove certain types of sites and make it more corporate friendly. I liked the product and I think that some housekeeping will go a long way in making the tools more usable and presentable.

Radio to WordPress Migration: Scott writes out some instructions on how to migrate from Radio Userland to WordPress in the process of finally migrating to WordPress himself. I found some resources in the WordPress wiki that needs serous TLC but Scott’s instructions might help some people. He uses a tool from Steve Hooker called backLogAllRSS but had to hack the code for things to work to his liking and he promises to share the code 😉 . Welcome to the world of WordPress, Scott!

Stripe Generator: While you are waiting for the WordPress Theme Generator to dig itself out of the digg effect, check out this “ajax diagonal stripes background designer”. At first I was wondering what use cool looking candy stripes would be until I read the Striped Designs post on their blog. I love the subtle gradient stripes! Thanks to a ping from ScriptyGoddess for the WordPress Theme Generator post.

WordPress Theme Generator: There used to be some very good ones out there but they seem to have dropped out of favor. This new one offers such conveniences as instant previews, lots of layout, color and gradient settings, custom header graphics and download of individual files as well as a neatly packaged zip. This could be a good starting point for WordPress bloggers who want to play around with colors and layout and do not want to muddy their hands with code. I like the instant gratification and appreciate Yvo’s hard work.
