We’re getting geared up to celebrate the 10th anniversary of WordPress (and if you’re in Atlanta please stop by!) and it’s more than a good time to remember how far we’ve come as a piece of software and a community. Something that was shared recently in our comment section was a new infographic that visually shares some of these neat facts – take a look after the jump:
When I was down in Atlanta for WordCamp back in March, while we were gathering to eat some Yum Diggity at the VIP after party, John shared a few words with everyone that have stuck with me. He said something along these lines: Everyone in this room is here because of an open source piece of software. We’re able to share our stories, build our businesses and feed our families because of it. Think about that for a second, how awesome is that!? It is pretty remarkable, if you sit and think about that for a few minutes. An open […]
Does today feel more like a Friday to anyone else? I’m really dragging on this Monday myself. Hopefully it’s a self contained issue 🙂 It’s definitely not stopping a few plugin authors though. Check out some new and updated plugins after the jump!
Mere seconds after Boston bombings, the social media sphere was buzzing. Soon the buzz turned to a loud reverberation as posts, blogs, podcasts, tweets, pins, retweets, reblogs, repins and shares spread the news like wildfire.

Events taking place in any corner of the globe are being used more and more to leverage tweets, posts, blogs and various other forms of social media communication.

At first I thought this was a “decision tree” type poster but then I realized it was more of visualization of the WordPress templating conventions and hierarchy! Good stuff! Thanks Nick Pelton who first shared this with us via the Minneapolis WordCamp! Check it out after the jump:
A small snippet of code will do the trick, which will be especially important with the increase use of .svg files, such as the WordPress SVG logo! For example, right now, most of you will experience this issue if you try to upload a .svg file:
I’m incredibly hesitant to join another social network because I’m currently under-going a significant personal purge of distractions but App.net keeps coming back to hit me and I keep getting asked when I’m going to seriously take a look at it and start using it. The main reason that I’m not using it primarily is simply because the community I have around Twitter is long-standing and large and it’s not easy for me to abandon something that’s a big part of not only my daily routine of connection but also a source of valuable information about what’s going on in the […]
Recently, beta 4 for wpxtreme went live. It includes a good amount of changes and additions from the previous version of wpxtreme. The first noticeable difference is the homepage. It’s been redesigned to help the user focus on what has been deemed most important to them. You’ll see in the picture below that the homepage focuses on four main areas: Store, Plugins & Themes, UI & UX, and the upcoming Dev Center.
I know that I talk about the weather quite a bit on Sundays, but I have to say it’s a beautiful day here in Iowa. It’s actually one of the first days this year to be able to blog outside and that’s exactly what I’m doing. Sunshine + Plugins = Awesome! There’s a number of new and a few updated plugins to share today. Have a great Sunday and check them out after the jump!
The weekends here and so are some new and updated plugins! There’s definitely a mix bag of plugins to share today. Check them all out after the jump! Have a great weekend everyone!
