This is the last roundup for the month of January and I have quite a few new and updated plugins to share. The Page Template Dashboard seems like a good fit for those of you who have a lot of page templates in your theme. It also seems there’s a couple of recently created plugins with some updates, so check them out too. Here’s your list for today:
WordPress University: Would You Attend, Teach?
The WordPress world seems to need more teachers and learning resources. There are plenty of themes already. — Galin Simeonov (@galins) January 31, 2013 This is what I immediately thought when I saw @Galins‘ tweet this morning, which is neat because I wrote on my personal blog something similar along the lines of education recently: Closely aligned with local idea is education and this idea of IRL or elements of being fully present and physical with technology.

Built with SEO in mind as well as with extensibility, it finds the use of both Sass and Compass although there are more than a few of us who will ultimately create own […]
Giveaway: Smashing Books Bundle
We’ve got a lot of stuff to move into our new office space and a bunch of that is table top reads that our team love – you know, the books that you leave lying around on the coffee table and stuff, right? A lot of these books are going to be development and WordPress related but we’ve got a few that are related to leadership, team-building, and startups as well. We’ll have to take a picture of them all when we finally get them unboxed. But as I was looking through my personal library I realized that I had a few […]
