First test post after connecting my blog to buzz.
Pretty easy once I realized that I had hidden the xfn relational section in my links editor >_<. Set up reciprocating rel=”me” links on my blog and google profile, force a google re-crawl at https://sgapi-recrawl.appspot.com, and voila!
Thanks to Dave for the info.
Ran across this a plugin called SmugWP while trying to decide on the best way to handle adding pictures to my posts. The great feature that caught my eye is that it integrates your smugmug account to wordpress seamlessly. When you go to insert a picture, the plugin inserts a tab for smugmug in addition to the regular options. There’s also lightbox 2 support as well, which creates a very cool overlay effect for viewing pics when you click on them (rather than simply opening it in a new window). Here’s a couple pics from when we were on the mall for Obama’s inauguration. Settings I used were thumbnail for the pic, large lightbox size.
Edit: Thanks Jed for pointing out I actually installed WP-Touch instead of IWphone. haha.
I seem to be more interested in setting my blog up to do cool things, than actually writing about said cool things. One of the plugins I’ve found is called WP-Touch. When it detects the user agent from an iphone or ipod touch, it sends a version of your blog that’s formatted for the iphone. There’s also an option for the visitor to see your blog with the original formatting if they so choose. I’ve included a couple screenshots I snagged while writing this post.
testing automagic twitter creation via wordpress plugin
Just installed the wordpress app for the iPhone. Testing the posting capability. Looks pretty sweet.
Also installed a twitter plugin for wordpress that should automatically create a tweet when I create a blog post. (thanks laura and jed)
So I keep paying for this site and never using it. Going to try to use the space for thoughts that can’t fit onto twitter.
I’ve managed to import all of my posts from vox (every post dated prior to this one), but boy does sixapart make it difficult and annoying. There’s no export function in vox (which sucks) and after some research, their rss feeds only show 10 entries unless you specify the page number. So I had to pull 10 posts from the rss feed, import to wordpress, repeat, until I was finally done. Then I realized that the vox posts still required a lot of editing by hand to remove vox specific code.
MEH.
Those posts are staying private until they’re presentable.
