Web 2.0 free button maker: After the success of the Stripe Generator and the Ajax Loading Gif Generator, here is a Web 2.0 Button Maker that lets you upload your own icon and build gel buttons for your site or blog. I agree with Mashable that the script is not very Web 2.0 ish itself since you have to “Apply Changes” every time you make a change but it is fun nonetheless. I tried building a PNG with the flame logo of weblogtoolscollection.com but I was spending so much time on it, I just gave up and made something simple. It turns out that we like “generators” on WeblogToolsCollection.com!

Plugin Page WordPress Stats Plugin Plugin Mission Add highly available, highly versatile statistics similar to WordPress.com to your WordPress.org hosted blog. Plugin Vision (Features) Wordpress.com has had a very nice statistics package for its users for some time. This plugin adds the same statistics to a WordPress hosted blog. Automattic does require that every user have a WordPress.com API key for the installation but it is very painless to get and the statistics generated are fantastic. There has been a lot of good press surrounding this plugin and Andy and the Automattic team have done a bang up job on it. Lots of items are monitored by the statistics plugin and the usual suspects are available. You can access the statistics through your blog admin and the page redirects to a WordPress.com admin page where the stats are available. The main statistics page displays a flash graph of your daily […]

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.

Vista WordPress Gadget: Get easy access to the core WordPress activities on your Windows Vista machine with this Vista Gadget for WordPress. Installation and setup should be simple. I was working on a gadget to pull the Planet’s feed but all work came to a grinding halt when I realized that Vista would not work with Cisco LEAP at school (by design I understand, LEAP is too weak) and with Safenet SoftRemote for work. So now it resides on an abandoned hard drive waiting for vendors to come up with solutions. I had it on my laptop for a total of three weeks and beside the atrocious memory requirements, was quite impressed with the product. Sidebar Gadgets are my favorite new feature in Vista and there are some terrific resources to build gadgets for those that are so inclined.

whos.amung.us: I love these alternative domain names. But even better than that, I like this application that tracks recent visitors to your blog or website and displays them on a simple graphic on your page. Installation is dead simple and the information is quick and current. You visit the link above, copy the code on the main page, paste it in your footer (or anywhere else on your template that gets loaded with every visit) and you are all set. Now if you click on the graphic that is generated, it tell you recent unique visitors to your pages, the list of pages being visited and updates the list in real time. There is also a Firefox Plugin for quick stats checking. Additionally, there is also a popular pages heat map of sorts. I have implemented it on this blog for the time being and you can find it at […]

Easy RSS Syndication: Easily include syndicated content from other blogs with this tool (look for RSSInclude). I was tipped off from a bunch of referrals coming from this link. The HTML generated is table based and could have been a simple list to make styling easier.

WordPress 2.1 Hidden Editor Buttons An Easter Egg was found by Chris in WordPress 2.1. Just hit alt-shift-v (Firefox) or alt-v (IE) to toggle the advanced editor features/buttons in the TinyMCE WYSIWYG interface. alt-v, instead of alt-shift-v works on my Firefox.

CNET beta API: The initial dataset will include CNET’s full catalog of technology products and software titles.This is the same dataset that drives the highly trafficked sites of CNET Reviews, Shopper.com and Download.com. Over time, the API will add news articles, community content, blog posts and full product reviews. CNET introduced a REST API to allow users to tap into their rich content. At this time it is limited to the above sites but will be expanded into news, blogs and other community content. Their Dashboard is interesting but is there a real use for the community (yet) beside just increased exposure for CNET content?
