website news

I will be experimenting with the new video tools for the current version of wordpress so you can expect more original content in the near future. I will specify which system I am using.

Bernie Goldbach - Mar 0, 2009 On a related front, what’s the story with your twitter account? Deleted it because I was fatigued by my other account, was going to give up twitter for good. In the end I went back to the secondary account though. When twitter repair the restore function I may restore the old one. We’ll have to see.

Today I got round to installing friendconnect on this blog. This means that everyone that has a gmail account can log in and become part of the community sprouting from this blog. You can also comment about things in general now. There’s a new layout now, as a result information is easier to find and the whole site should load quite a bit faster.

Testing the new touch wordpress application and this is the result. Fun but would me better with a full keyboard.

Yesterday I talked about feeds not being incomplete and how it was a shame that we could not read the article unless we had a connection to the sites in question. Desertrose0601 on twitter pointed out in a blog comment that I was guilty of the same thing that I was commenting on. That has since been resolved.

Twittervox, a show which I do under the name Warzabidul with the help of Loudmouthman of Loudmouthman.com now has a facebook page which I created earlier in the day. The point of this facebook is to bring together all those that have participated in the show so that they may discuss past and future program topics, from social media, through twitter rules and regulations and towards related topics like seesmic and Second life.

A recent article has brought to the world’s attention that Wikipedia has over 2 million articles on its website and that’s great. What it means is that thousands of people have taken a little time out of their day to provide what knowledge they had to a global audience through their small contribution. The World Wide Web was not always as easy to use as it is today. Back when I started using the world wide web there were less than six million web pages.

Over the past year, over half a million visits have been counted to this website. Over the past five months over fifty thousand visits, a month took place. For the period in question, there have been almost two million hits and 58 gigabytes of data transfer.

There are four reasons to be happy today. The first of these is that my MBP is finally in Geneva therefore it is a short matter of days before I get it into my hands and start playing with the computer and the new software. The laptop will be used for all video editing and multimedia work I have whilst the iBook will be used for daily tasks such as surfing the web, mobility, and more.

I’ve just spent at least two hours playing around with drupal. I was working on bit by bit and actually had a case where I had to RTFM. Over the past few hours, I was trying to understand why I couldn’t place the blocks where I wanted. Finally, I found out. I had forgotten to upload the themes folder therefore no content was uploaded. It’s a Content management system, developed so that people may contribute new content without the hassle of uploading HTML files.
