Popularity comparison of CMS tools: Using Alexa, the author compared drupal.org’s traffic with the traffic of other Free and Open Source content management systems’ websites. Interesting read for those vested in the CMS business.

As promised before, this is the first installment of the SXSW podcasts as recorded graciously by Photomatt. This is the Zeldman Keynote at SXSW Interactive as recorded on Photomatt’s cellphone. I love technology (and thank Photomatt for his troubles)! Photomatt is providing the MP3s from his blog but I am mirroring them here. These are recorded from a cell phone and are not the best of quality, but thats not the point and the quality is good enough to understand what is being said (which IS the point). From what I gather, Photomatt is also going to be recording all of his panels and then some. I will try to mirror all of the podcasts here as well. If you want made me miss SXSW this year, check out my personal blog. 🙂

WP Theme: Meadow – land of the rising moo: Haha, I love this theme and its header. The Themes competition is slowly but surely filling up quickly. Look for Meadow and almost twenty other themes there!

CNN RSS Feeds I am led to believe that this is new(s), was it just me that thought (and never looked to check) that CNN.com had news feeds all along? Thanks Dr Bacchus

Ten Reasons Why Blogging is Good For Your Career: Tim Bray makes some very good points in an anecdotal entry to the recent swarm of “blogging at (or about) work is a boo boo” posts. “Oh, I’ve written about that, just google for XYZ and I’m on the top page” Thanks BoingBoing

WP Plugin: ASIN Link Automatically create links to Amazon pages when you mention their ASIN numbers in your blog. Note that it also allows you to add an associates ID from Amazon so you can get some moolah for any purchases.

Read/Write Web: Microsoft’s Web-based RSS Aggregator?: Look here for a working version. Pretty cool beginnings, though notice that it does not work in Firefox. Lots of disclaimers and such on the page but a great find nonetheless.

WP plugin: WP-CaTT This plugin appends a link onto the post’s category listings to the corresponding Technorati Tag page for that category. Oh so many links to click now. I can imagine a blog with ALL of these link, tag and meta creator plugins installed. Link soup anyone? (Though in all fairness, this is a pretty cool extension of the Technorati tag plugin(s) for WordPress)
