Clutter Free WordPress Write Page

Several people have been asking how I got my write page to be so clutter free… Well, there you have it.

K2 0.95 RC1 Released

Yup, get it here.

Semantics 101

Now I don’t personally use the visual editor in WordPress. I like me some Textile and control. But it is in there, and I think non-tech users are better off overall because of it.

And now with WordPress 2.1, you can even switch between WYSIWYG and code views. Great!

Yeah, well it is great, but what in the hell is going on with those buttons?!

Habari Media Manager Sketch

Alright, I wasn’t planning on posting this just yet, but since I won’t have proper time to work on it for the next few days, my lack of patience got the better of me.

Now it is important to note that this isn’t even a mockup as much as it is a sketch (albeit rather a polished one). There is some functionality missing and so on and so forth.

Welcome WordPress 2.1

A big congratulations to Matt and company with the release of WordPress 2.1. I’m uploading it to the site as I’m writing this.

K2 is right behind it, and will see a new release as soon as humanly possible. I’m extremely busy this week, but I’ll see if I can’t slot it in somewhere later today so you have something new and shiny to play with.

WordPress 2.1 actually contains a couple of things that are of interest to K2, such as the inclusion of the Prototype and Scriptaculous javascript libraries directly in the core. And while it doesn’t look like WP gzip’s its JS libraries, it nonetheless is great for us to be able to rely on WP’s inclusion of those libraries, rather than shipping them with K2.

Also there is some interesting new header stuff, which should also make for some new niceties.

Today also sees the release of the 2.0 version of Akismet, a plugin that has done more for the world of blogging than any other plugin.

Never too Cold to Run

Bjørn made it abundantly clear to me, when I first asked for advice on me starting to run, to never allow for excuses. But to just get up, get dressed and get a’runnin’. And it occurred to me, that once you accept that as your new reality, it’s no longer a problem if it’s raining or snowing or windy or whatever other kind of weather patterns nature throws at you. At least it hasn’t been so far…

Now I’m of course a measly a beginner, but even if I was seasoned, would I be able to run in –25C? This guy lives in Canada, and he does!… Now watch him strip explain his clothes in front of the camera.
