Now that I’ve gotten all of my blogs up and running on Wordpress 2.5, I wanted to share my thoughts on the whole thing.  First up, I’m really enjoying the new interface.  I’m even writing this post in the admin interface, instead of Windows Live Writer, although, that’s probably not going to become a regular [...]

Logged into my various blogs this morning with the announcement that a new version of WordPress had been released, and that it was being classified as an “urgent security release”.
Evidently you can upgrade the whole thing, or just apply a patched copy of the xmlrpc.php file.  I was able to get all of my sites [...]

In the process of trying to bring you the best blogging tips, I’ve constantly mentioned that all of your posts should be submitted to BloggingZoom, and when I looked at my site this morning, I noticed an updated BloggingZoom graphic to show how many times each of my sites had been ‘zoomed’.  Very cool looking, [...]

According to a post by Court, BloggingZoom has been hacked by “a pack of losers with nothing better to do.”
I thought something was a little strange this morning when the BZ button wasn’t showing up on my posts.
