Love For Wordpress

I have been an avid supporter of all things wordpress for the past 3 years.    This includes testing out development versions of the software, helping in various support forums and of course, using the product on a regular basis!    This past year I have also been involved in various things with wordpress mu as well.   I am happy to donate my time to seeing these open-source projects move forward.   It is one of the many things that I like to do as the blogging community benefits from the time and effort that people donate to these projects.

This is why I am helping in another way this month.   Andrew and James have put together a specific wpmu related plugin competition to give a price to the best plugin specific to the project.   Plugins are additions written for specific tasks and functionality to enhance the project.   These plugins help people with their blogging experience and communities, often for free.    That is what is great about this competition, as it shows appreciation for the hours of work that these people put into helping everyone else.   I donated $100 to the competition and I hope that this brings out the code writers!

Special thanks goes out to Lloyd for forwarding on some great wordpress gear to my P.O. box since no one else seems to be able to ship there!    Thanks!  (no, the writing isn’t backwards, it was from Photo Booth :)

I have to share these videos that my wife was able to take the other day of some spiders around our house.    Freaky!

On the way home I was hit by a massive rainstorm that produced some great moisture and a pleasant surprise with this wonderful rainbow! Thought I would share it!

I never posted about this past week, but there were some amazing performances from the Canadian Idol stage.    They tried something different this season with the contestants being the musicians and having the group sing.   It gives a more natural talent feel and all of them were amazing.   I strongly suggest if you have some time you watch these videos!

Fly Like An Eagle

Old Time Rock and Roll

Yellow

Imagine

These were the most entertaining to watch in many seasons of watching both American and Canadian Idol for me and hope that this format is continued into the future. Best results show yet!
