I decided to speak privately to discuss this with the student. As it turns out, the student and his mother had to take an emergency trip to the hospital for his grandmother and he didn\'t feel comfortable sharing this in a blog. To me this showed foresight and an understanding of public versus private thoughts.','Getting Students to Elaborate',0,'','inherit','open','open','','6-revision-6','','','2009-06-02 16:28:24','2009-06-02 22:28:24','',6,'http://bloggingintheclassroom.cuipblogs.org/2009/06/02/6-revision-6/',0,'revision','',0),(16,23,'2009-06-02 16:29:11','2009-06-02 22:29:11','','Yes, We Must Blog AGAIN',0,'','inherit','open','open','','14-revision','','','2009-06-02 16:29:11','2009-06-02 22:29:11','',14,'http://bloggingintheclassroom.cuipblogs.org/2009/06/02/14-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(14,23,'2009-06-02 16:30:06','2009-06-02 22:30:06','Students who are participating in my AYV blog (see right bar) are required to regularly post reflections after major milestones of our media-making process.

This past year, students were challenged to fully comprehend the difficult subject and teachers were challenged with teaching the content in an interesting and innovative way.\r\n\r\nWebQuests have the potential to be an interesting alternative to teaching the basics of the US Constitution and Illinois State Law. I decided to find an existing WebQuest to evaluate it\'s effectiveness and determine if it would be a reliable resource to use in this upcoming school year.\r\n\r\nWhen evaluating this site I will use the questions I posed in an earlier blog post: \r\n\r\n1. What is the site\'s purpose?\r\n\r\n2. Is it appropriate to use?\r\n\r\n3. Is the information current?\r\n\r\n4. Is the information presented in a clear manner?\r\n\r\n<img class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-88\" src=\"http://bloggingintheclassroom.cuipblogs.net/files/2009/08/Picture-1-300x187.png\" alt=\"Picture 1\" width=\"300\" height=\"187\" />\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.lesdwebquests.org/conindex.html\" target=\"_blank\">United States Consitution Webquest</a> was created by some Arizona educational organization, although that information is not very clear. The task of the quest is for students to imagine themselves as journalists in 1787 who research and understand the final draft of the constitution in order to write a newspaper article on the details.\r\n\r\n1. The purpose of this site is to direct students to resources where they will gain information about the purpose and history of the US Constitution. Students essentially are summarizing main events, answering questions, and creating a visual aid (presumably to be presented in class to their peers) to showcase their knowledge.\r\n\r\n2. The site is appropriate to use. Almost all of the links included are to reputable sites (.gov, .edu) and include correct information. The creation of a newspaper will allow students to synthesize new information and apply it to a purposeful product. This has the potential to engage students and encourage collaboration. \r\n\r\nOne concern to consider is the reading level of the resource links. Many of the sites use vocabulary that may be hard for our under-performing students to understand. If a teacher chose to use this webquest, they may have to modify for students at lower reading levels by grouping mixed-ability or offering alternative sites.\r\n\r\n3. The welcome page was updated in 2002, and subsequent pages range from last edited in 2001 to 2007. Concerns that may be raised: Is the information incorrect? Do all the links work? After checking, all of the links do still work.

And while I know this is was probably my experience alone and no other first year teachers can relate to this (ha, ha), I was desperate for direction.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nEnter the World Wide Web. Seek and ye shall find.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nMrs. Meacham is an elementary teacher in Wisconsin with twelve years of experience. She lists her hobbies as \"website building and organizing STUFF\". Well doesn\'t that sound like just the thing our teachers at our Tech Academies would be interested in?\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThis teacher has not only documented her schedules and routines for every year and grade level she has taught (kindergarten through 5th grade), but she has detailed descriptions about every feature of her instruction. She is a teacher\'s teacher.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nOn her homepage is the alphabet, with topics organized underneath.  Need help figuring out exactly what your Calendar routine should consist of? That\'s under C. What about beginning the year with Name Games? Uner N or course! Yes, there are more than five links on the homepage, but Meacham\'s mainpage is <em>very</em> easy to navigate.','TIE 542_Q3: Resource Depository',0,'','inherit','open','closed','','70-revision-7','','','2009-07-20 19:56:26','2009-07-21 00:56:26','',70,'http://bloggingintheclassroom.cuipblogs.net/?p=91',0,'revision','',0),(92,23,'2009-08-05 21:21:04','2009-08-06 02:21:04','<a href=\"http://nlutie.com/ljohnson/final_project/WebQuest/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\">My project is finally complete</a>. Hooray! While I am quite proud of the finished product, it honestly wasn\'t the easiest thing I have done. Back in the day, I would bookmark sites and call that a \"WebQuest,\" but I hardly thought through a concrete task and process I wanted the students to go through. I am glad that I had the opportunity to actually create an authentic Quest.\r\n\r\nOne thing that I was stuck on was the idea. How to create an \"essential question\" ala our Understanding by Design class, that would challenge our students to think for themselves. I needed a topic that was open-ended, arguable, that wasn\'t leading or had a right or wrong answer. I also challenged myself to find something current and relatable to my students, as the WebQuests I liked the most were very valid and current. So the issue I had the toughest time with was choosing the topic.\r\n\r\nAlso, my teaching background is in the primary grades, first and second grade. Currently as a Lead Tech Teacher I work with middle school students. Planning a lesson for a group of students that I don\'t explicitly teach core subjects to was also a challenge. I had to really pour through a lot of resources to find ones that I thought would be easy for a 13 year old to comprehend.\r\n\r\nFinally, I\'ll admit that the evaluation was the last thing I worked on, when I know full well that looking at the standards and creating an evaluation should be one of the first things done.\r\n\r\nOn the plus side, the actual making of the website was fun for me. I\'ve taken design classes in the past, so making things aesthetically pleasing is always a rousing good time!\r\n\r\nWhat does the future of WebQuests look like for me? Well, I definitely plan on sharing this with my teachers.

I started a draft, and then realized that with 2.9 in beta, we&#8217;ll have a release announcement sometime in the next few weeks (barring unforeseen complications, etc), and all the core contributors will be thanked then. Though I think it&#8217;s worth giving thanks every day for the people who make WordPress possible, I don&#8217;t like to clutter up anyone&#8217;s feed readers with repetitive posts, so I decided to wait until today for my post, and to focus solely on the other group I&#8217;d planned to include: <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/\">support forum</a> volunteers.</p>\n<p>Forum volunteers don&#8217;t get a lot of flashy attention. There aren&#8217;t flame wars about whether or not the support forums should be commercial instead of free and community-run. There generally aren&#8217;t big arguments and debates over whose point of view is the right one. What the forums do have is amazing volunteers who give their time to help other WordPress users and developers learn. People who only know a little answer easy questions that maybe they&#8217;ve only recently learned the answers to themselves. People with more expert skills help troubleshoot larger issues. If someone offers advice that could be better, others will add their solutions to the mix. Of all the WordPress users I&#8217;ve met in person, not one person got started without visiting the forums. In many cases, people turn to the forums even before the Codex. In the support forums, I see a lot of what is best about our community, and almost none of that which is not.*</p>\n<p>Without further ado, here&#8217;s my thank you to the volunteers who make the support forums work. Without them, we would be less than what we are today. I&#8217;m listing people by their Wordpress.org usernames, since that&#8217;s how you see them in the forums.</p>\n<p><strong>Official WordPress.org Support Forum Moderators </strong></p>\n<p id=\"userlogin\">These are the people who&#8217;ve officially got your back and have been active in the past few months.

href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/\">support forums at WordPress.org</a>.</p>\n<p>As we close out 2009 and get closer to 2010, it would be great for us to start thinking about some ways we could make it easier/more rewarding for people to be involved in the forums and other aspects of the open source project. I&#8217;ve started a <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/topic/336953?replies=1\">forum thread</a> to discuss some ideas with the thought that we can try a couple after the holidays and see what takes.</p>\n<p>* <em>I say almost because let&#8217;s face it, we all get caught in the traps of trolls sometimes, and patience can be hard to keep when someone is a jerk. So a reminder to all who use the forums: be nice to the people who are trying to help you! <img src=\'http://wordpress.org/development/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif\' alt=\':)\' class=\'wp-smiley\' /> </em></p>\n<p>P.S. While I&#8217;m at it, here&#8217;s another tip/request. Search the forums for your problem before posting; if it&#8217;s already been answered before (often more than once), you&#8217;re kind of wasting people&#8217;s time by posting it again without trying the previous solutions first. Please respect the time of the volunteers by searching first (and mention in your post what you&#8217;ve already tried).</p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:63:\"http://wordpress.org/development/2009/11/a-little-support/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1:\"0\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:2;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:50:\"\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n				\n		\n		\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n		\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:5:{s:0:\"\";a:7:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:24:\"WordPress Wins CMS Award\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:66:\"http://wordpress.org/development/2009/11/wordpress-wins-cms-award/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:75:\"http://wordpress.org/development/2009/11/wordpress-wins-cms-award/#comments\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 18 Nov 2009 03:48:04 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:4:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"General\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:5:\"award\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:2;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:3:\"cms\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:3;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:5:\"packt\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:39:\"http://wordpress.org/development/?p=978\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:294:\"I was very excited last week to learn that WordPress has been awarded the Overall Best Open Source CMS Award in the 2009 Open Source CMS Awards.

This is a landmark for us, as it is the first time we&#8217;ve won this award, and it marks a shift in the public perception of WordPress, from blog software to full-featured CMS. No small contest, the Open Source CMS Awards received over 12,000 nominations and more than 23,000 votes across five categories. </p>\n<p>As Hiro Nakamura said when he first bent time and space to land in Times Square: &#8220;Yatta!&#8221;</p>\n<p>In addition to winning in the Overall Best Open Source CMS category, WordPress was named first runner-up in the Best Open Source PHP CMS category. This is significant because we weren&#8217;t even in the top 5 last year, and now we&#8217;re #2, ahead of Joomla! As is stated on the Award site, &#8220;WordPress made its way into the top five for the first time. The fact that it was outranked by Drupal by a very slight margin indicates how popular it has become with users as well as developers over the past year.&#8221;</p>\n<p>Every day thousands of new people are embracing WordPress to power not just their blogs but entire sites and communities without compromising on usability or scalability (as would be the case with a legacy CMS). Every member of the WordPress community, from core developer to beginning user, should be proud to be part of this momentum: congratulations to us all!</p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:71:\"http://wordpress.org/development/2009/11/wordpress-wins-cms-award/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1:\"5\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:3;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:47:\"\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n				\n		\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n		\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:5:{s:0:\"\";a:7:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:33:\"Core Contributors at WordCamp NYC\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:59:\"http://wordpress.org/development/2009/11/core-wordcamp-nyc/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:68:\"http://wordpress.org/development/2009/11/core-wordcamp-nyc/#comments\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Tue, 17 Nov 2009 13:14:57 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:3:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"WordCamp\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:14:\"#wordpress-dev\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:2;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:17:\"core contributors\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:39:\"http://wordpress.org/development/?p=971\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:321:\"WordCamp NYC was last weekend, and it was crazy awesome to have so many WordPress users and developers together in one place (final numbers to come, but looks like over 700).

If you just want the list without my asides, check out the full schedule at <a href=\"http://wordcamp.org\">WordCamp.org</a>.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://phxwordcamp.com/\">WordCamp Phoenix</a> is first up, on November 13. I&#8217;d planned on attending this one myself before they changed the date (it was originally scheduled for the 7th), but will sadly have to miss it as it conflicts with WordCamp NYC. If you, like me, can&#8217;t make it to Phoenix, be sure to check their web site for information on the <a href=\"http://phxwordcamp.com/live-video-stream/\">live stream</a> they&#8217;re planning to provide. If it&#8217;s anywhere near the quality of the stream from Portland or Seattle earlier this fall, it&#8217;ll be just like being there, but without a t-shirt to show for it (and theirs has stripes, so if you&#8217;re local, you should go!). My only consolation in missing this WordCamp is that I&#8217;ve seen about half of the <a href=\"http://phxwordcamp.com/speakers/\">speakers</a> before. If you&#8217;re going, don&#8217;t miss the session by <a href=\"http://johnhawkinsunrated.com\">John Hawkins</a> on <a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/2009/09/20/john-hawkins-plugin-building-portland09/\"><em>Building a WordPress Plugin</em></a>; it got me to write my first plugin in Portland! <a href=\"http://ma.tt\">Matt</a>&#8216;ll be there, will you?</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.wordcampvictoria.ca/agenda/\">WordCamp Victoria</a> is next, on November 14. This is another one I&#8217;d love to go to, but can&#8217;t because it&#8217;s at the same time as New York&#8217;s. I would especially have liked to go because it looks like the <a href=\"http://www.wordcampvictoria.ca/speaker-biographies/\">speakers</a> are all local, and I haven&#8217;t seen any of them speak before. Occasionally WordCamps lose a little of the local feeling by focusing on visiting speakers, so it&#8217;s nice to see so many Vancouverites on the list. They&#8217;ll have a Blogger track and a Technical track running concurrently, so there should a little something for everyone. No word on a live stream, but hopefully they&#8217;ll be able to catch some of the presentations on video and post them to <a href=\"http://WordPress.tv\">WordPress.tv</a> after the event.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordcamp.kapook.com/en/\">WordCamp Bangkok</a> is scheduled for November 15. I have to admit that the first thing that catches my eye on their agenda is &#8220;WordPress Band.&#8221; I&#8217;ve known WordCamps to have <a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/2008/10/31/wordcamp-sf-2008-andy-skelton-deserve/\">people</a> <a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/2008/10/31/wordcamp-sf-2008-chuck-lewis-the-seo-rapper/\">performing</a> <a href=\"http://vimeo.com/5354329\">songs</a> before, but a whole band? Might be a first. I hope they&#8217;ll post the video to WordPress.tv, too.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://2009.newyork.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamp New York City</a> is the same weekend as the previous three, on November 14-15. In the interest of full disclosure, I need to tell you that I&#8217;m one of the organizers of WordCamp NYC, so my informative comment about it here may be a little biased. <img src=\'http://wordpress.org/development/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif\' alt=\':)\' class=\'wp-smiley\' />  That said, we have over <a href=\"http://2009.newyork.wordcamp.org/speakers/\">50 confirmed speakers</a> (both local and visiting), and <a href=\"http://2009.newyork.wordcamp.org/program/\">2 full days of content</a> in 8 &#8212; count &#8216;em, 8 &#8212; tracks. Newbies get a free year of hosting and walked through setting up a WordPress blog in workshop format, while the other tracks have specialized content for Bloggers, CMS Users, Beginning Developers, Advanced Developers, Academic Users, people interested in MU/BuddyPress, and the Open Source Community. Did I mention the <a href=\"http://2009.newyork.wordcamp.org/plugintheme-competition/\">theme and plugin contest</a>? Or the <a href=\"http://2009.newyork.wordcamp.org/2009/10/28/my-favorite-conference-shirt/\">awesome shirts</a>? How about the Genius Bar, or the Hacker Room? The additional Unconference sessions? If you&#8217;re anywhere near NYC that weekend (and with the Acela, that&#8217;s anywhere from Boston to D.C.), you should definitely come. I&#8217;ll be there, Matt&#8217;ll be there, lead developer Mark Jaquith will be there, lead developer of BuddyPress Andy Peatling will be there, and too many other WordPress luminaries and locals to mention. If we hit 800 registrations by November 12, I&#8217;m baking cookies for everyone.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://peru.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamp Peru</a> will be on November 28 in Lima. I was checking out their topics list, and it looks like they&#8217;re planning to cover all the usual topics around blog administration, security, increasing traffic, and integration with social media sites. No speaker list yet, but if you&#8217;re in Peru, it looks like this will be a nice gathering of WordPress users, and they&#8217;re hoping to have around 100 people attend.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordcamporlando.org/\">WordCamp Orlando</a> is the last of the year, on December 5. They haven&#8217;t published a speaker list or schedule yet, but I know Matt will be there, Mark Jaquith will be there, and I will be there. I know some other awesome core contributors are planning to come, but I don&#8217;t want to jinx anything, so if you&#8217;re curious, come see for yourself.

How? Bug hunts! Yes, that time-honored tradition (in the time of WordPress, anyway) of everyone pitching in to test patches and report the results, working on solutions to major bugs, and helping to clear out Trac has come around again, and we&#8217;re scheduling not one, but two bug hunts over the next couple of weeks to ensure that everyone has enough time to prepare and <a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/\">participate</a>.</p>\n<p><strong>#1</strong> &#8211; The first bug hunt of 2.9 will be Thursday through Saturday, November 5-7, 2009. This should give people a few days to plan for it, upgrade their dev environments if they haven&#8217;t been following trunk, and figure out how to allot their time. We&#8217;re stretching over both weekdays and weekend to try and accommodate everyone&#8217;s schedule.</p>\n<p><strong>#2 </strong>- The second bug hunt will be a week later, Saturday through Monday, November 14-16, 2009. This should make it possible for anyone who needs more than a week to set some time aside to participate. This bug hunt will coincide with <a href=\"http://2009.newyork.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamp NYC</a>, where a special Hacker Room will be set aside for people to go and work on 2.9 bug tickets alongside regular core contributors including Mark Jaquith and Matt Martz (sivel from IRC).</p>\n<h4>The Goals</h4>\n<p><strong>Test, test, test existing patches!</strong> You can see all tickets with patches that need testing by checking <a href=\"http://core.trac.wordpress.org/report/13\">this report</a>. When you&#8217;ve tested a patch, report your results in the ticket comments, so core committers can see how the patch is faring.</p>\n<p><strong>Fix known bugs! </strong>You can see the bugs that need patches by checking <a href=\"http://core.trac.wordpress.org/report/16\">this report</a>. Look for the ones that seem that they&#8217;ll affect the most people or have the biggest impact by being fixed. Edge case bugs should be lower priority.</p>\n<p><strong>Report new bugs! </strong>As you&#8217;re testing out the development version, if you come across a bug, <a href=\"http://core.trac.wordpress.org/search\">search trac</a> to see if someone has reported it yet. If so, add a comment with your experience to the ticket so we&#8217;ll know it&#8217;s affecting more than one person. If no ticket exists yet, <a href=\"http://core.trac.wordpress.org/newticket\">create one</a>.</p>\n<p>Core committers will be around (in the #wordpress-dev channel at irc.freenode.com) both weekends to review patches that have been thoroughly tested, answer questions as needed, and give feedback on patches that need more work before being commit-worthy.</p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve never participated in a WordPress bug hunt before, but you&#8217;d like to get involved, we&#8217;d love to have you join us!

href=\"http://wordpress.org/development/2009/12/wordpress-2-9-beta-2/\" target=\"_blank\">WordPress 2.9 beta 2</a> is out, and the final release of WordPress 2.9 should be out in a short time. However, not many of you might have tried out the beta or may be aware of the new functionalities that will be included in it.</p>\n<p>Here is a hands-on review of WordPress 2.9 Beta 2. I try to showcase some of the most interesting features you can look forward to.</p>\n<h3>Image Editor</h3>\n<p>The most interesting feature in WordPress 2.9 is the introduction of a basic image editor. Using this feature you can crop photos, resize them and more. </p>\n<p><img title=\"upload_image_wp29\" border=\"0\" alt=\"upload_image_wp29\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/upload_image_wp29.png\" width=\"356\" height=\"168\" /> </p>\n<p>In WordPress 2.9 whenever you upload an image, you can edit it using the edit image option. </p>\n<p><img title=\"edit_images_in_wp29\" border=\"0\" alt=\"edit_images_in_wp29\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/edit_images_in_wp29.png\" width=\"418\" height=\"308\" /> </p>\n<p>The image editor contains several useful functions such as image cropping, image rotation and image flipping. In addition to that you can also undo and redo your actions. Overall WordPress 2.9 provides users with a much needed image editor which rocks.</p>\n<h3>Post Trash Can</h3>\n<p>How many times have you had a OOPS moment, when you deleted a post and then realized that you should not have done it? WordPress 2.9 introduces a much needed Trash can feature, which will allow you to undelete the posts you did not intend to.</p>\n<p><img title=\"wordpress_29_trash_post\" border=\"0\" alt=\"wordpress_29_trash_post\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/wordpress_29_trash_post.png\" width=\"287\" height=\"178\" /> </p>\n<p>The new Trash feature completely replaces the old Delete functionality, when you click on the Trash link, the status of the post will be moved to “Trash”, and can be restored for a certain time limit, 30 days by default.</p>\n<p><img title=\"wordpress_29_trash_post_view\" border=\"0\" alt=\"wordpress_29_trash_post_view\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/wordpress_29_trash_post_view.png\" width=\"293\" height=\"258\" /> </p>\n<p>To view all the posts or page in Trash, just visit the Trash menu in the top of the Edit Posts or pages section. You can also limit the number of days the trash can should hold deleted posts by adding the following line to your wp-config.php:</p>\n<p>define(&#8217;EMPTY_TRASH_DAYS&#8217;, 7);</p>\n<p>Change the number 7 to the number of days you want to store deleted copies in the trash can.</p>\n<h4>Restoring Deleted Posts</h4>\n<p><img title=\"restore_deleted_posts\" border=\"0\" alt=\"restore_deleted_posts\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/restore_deleted_posts.png\" width=\"240\" height=\"154\" /> </p>\n<p>If you deleted posts by mistake, you can always restore it by visiting the Trash menu and clicking on the restore link. You can restore multiple posts by using the Bulk options.</p>\n<h4>Disabling Trash Can Feature in WP 2.9</h4>\n<p>The Trash can feature is very useful, however, some of you might want to disable it. To disable trash feature, just add the following code to wp-config.php: define(&#8217;EMPTY_TRASH_DAYS&#8217;, 0);</p>\n<p><img title=\"disable_trash_feature_in_wp29\" border=\"0\" alt=\"disable_trash_feature_in_wp29\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/disable_trash_feature_in_wp29.png\" width=\"334\" height=\"192\" /> </p>\n<p>Once you do that, you will see Delete Permanently option instead of Trash.</p>\n<h3>Embedding Videos and Images with oEmbed</h3>\n<p>oEmbed provides media providers with a way to provide additional information about a media used from their sites you are adding it from. For more information on this visit the <a href=\"http://oembed.com/\" target=\"_blank\">oEmbed</a> site.</p>\n<p>In short, you can now embed videos directly into WordPress by providing the URL of the video, instead of having to add the entire embed code into it.</p>\n<p>oEmbed support is enabled by default, you can disable it by visiting Settings -&gt; Media.</p>\n<h3>Tackling Duplicate Content With rel=”canonical”</h3>\n<p><img title=\"duplicate_content_canonical\" border=\"0\" alt=\"duplicate_content_canonical\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/duplicate_content_canonical.png\" width=\"395\" height=\"125\" /> </p>\n<p>WordPress 2.9 adds a new tag to the page header which specifies the canonical path to the actual content. Using this tag is highly suggested if you want to tackle duplicate content.

This can come in very handy as not many users usually manage their database or optimize them.</p>\n<p>To setup Automatic DB repairs in WP 2.9, you will need to add a new constant to your wp-config.php file as follows:</p>\n<p>define(&#8217;WP_ALLOW_REPAIR&#8217;, <strong>true</strong>);</p>\n<p>Once you do that, WordPress will automatically repair the DB periodically</p>\n<h3>Under the Hood Changes: Theme &amp; Plugin Developers</h3>\n<p>These changes should not usually affect the end users, but will help our plugin and theme developers.</p>\n<p>WordPress 2.9 introduces new functions which can come in pretty handy to plugin and theme developers. These include, but are not limited to:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ability to get the thumbnail image for any post using a function. </li>\n<li>Ability to create custom post types. </li>\n<li>Ability to add additional metadata for comments and posts. </li>\n<li>Ability to register a theme directory, other than the default one. </li>\n</ul>\n<p>WordPress 2.9 does not pack as many features as 2.8 did, however it does introduce a lot of new and exciting features. Many of which will make life easier for both the end user and plugin and theme developers.</p>\n<p>These are some of the most noticeable features I saw in WordPress 2.9. However, I might have missed a few of them out, so please feel free to comment and let me know about them, or give your views on what you think of the latest changes that will be unleashed in WordPress 2.9.</p>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Thu, 03 Dec 2009 23:19:10 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:12:\"Keith Dsouza\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:3;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:50:\"Weblog Tools Collection: WordPress Trademark Usage\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:40:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/?p=7282\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:79:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/12/02/wordpress-trademark-usage/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:3110:\"<p>In the past few weeks, I&#8217;ve come across more and more websites which are in clear violation of the WordPress trademark, namely the domain requirements as <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/about/domains/\" target=\"_blank\">outlined here</a>. The simple thing to do when creating a website centered around WordPress is not to have the full name as part of the domain name. For example, fanofwordpress.com. Instead, it should be fanofwp.com. That&#8217;s not all that&#8217;s trademarked though as the WordPress logo is also registered. </p>\n<div id=\"attachment_7283\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/wptrademarkedlogo.png\" alt=\"Trademarked WordPress Logo\" title=\"wptrademarkedlogo\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7283\" height=\"68\" width=\"260\" /><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Trademarked WordPress Logo</p></div>\n<p>The description of the visual trademark according to the United States Patent and Trademark Office is as follows:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>26.01.17 &#8211; Circles, two concentric; Concentric circles, two; Two concentric circles</li>\n<li>26.01.21 &#8211; Circles that are totally or partially shaded.</li>\n<li>26.17.13 &#8211; Letters or words underlined and/or overlined by one or more strokes or lines; Overlined words or letters; Underlined words or letters</li>\n</ul>\n<p>If you need an official logo to use, <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/about/logos/\" target=\"_blank\">this page</a> on the WordPress.org website has quite a few but one thing missing from the page is instructions on the proper usage of these images in a way that does not violate the trademark.</p>\n<p>WordPress is one of the most popular publishing systems in use today which spawns a host of websites that offer services related to the software or fan sites dedicated to the project. These sites will continue to be built but what happens if you invest time, money, and a bunch of sweat equity only to find out a year into the project that you&#8217;re violating the trademark and either have to redirect the domain to something else or change around the design of the website? This could pose quite a problem.</p>\n<p>To avoid situations like these, I think it&#8217;s time that a dedicated section of the WordPress.org website be setup to specifically address the WordPress trademarks. Explain proper usage as it relates to domain names, visual identity, etc. Answer as many common questions as possible through the information presented on these pages so that we know ahead of time what is and is not a trademark violation. I also think there needs to be a form where community members such as myself can notify Automattic of trademark abuse. </p>\n<p>While the model doesn&#8217;t have to be mimicked, I think Mozilla does a great job with presenting their <a href=\"http://www.mozilla.org/foundation/trademarks/\" target=\"_blank\">trademark information to the public</a> as well as providing a form to fill out to <a href=\"http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/legal/fraud-report/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">report trademark abuse</a>. </p>\n<p><strong>What do you think?</strong></p>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 02 Dec 2009 19:58:47 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"Jeff Chandler\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:4;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:60:\"Weblog Tools Collection: WordPress Plugin Releases for 12/02\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:40:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/?p=7280\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:88:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/12/02/wordpress-plugin-releases-for-1202/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:2573:\"<h3>New Plugins</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.techtipsmaster.com/tweet-retweet-wordpress-posts-plugin.html\">Tweet retweet posts</a></p>\n<p>This plugin adds a button to your wordpress posts which helps the user to tweet and retweet wordpress blog posts which will attract more targeted potential users to your blog and gain popularity.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://arpitshah.com/plugins/all-in-one-webmaster/\">All in One Webmaster</a></p>\n<p>All in One Webmaster allow you to add Google, Bing, Yahoo Webmaster Meta Tag into Header of your theme and also you can add Google Analytics into theme footer.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.spunkyjones.com/wordpress/open-post-plugin-wordpress/\">Open Post</a></p>\n<p>Open post plugin allows anonymous unregistered users to comment on selected posts, when you have a register to comment blog.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/superslider-excerpt/\">SuperSlider-Excerpt</a></p>\n<p>SuperSlider-Excerpts automatically adds thumbnails wherever you show excerpts</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://kirilisa.com/projects/frontpage-manager/\">Frontpage Manager</a></p>\n<p>Lets you customize how frontpage posts appear in a number of ways: limiting by category, number of posts, number of words/characters/paragraphs.</p>\n<h3>Updated Plugins</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://markbeljaars.com/plugins/tocc-plugin/\">Table of Contents Creator</a></p>\n<p>Table of Contents Creator automatically generates a complete table of contents for your site, including pages, posts and forum comments.

If your MU site has more than a few dozen blogs you need to add this table <em>before</em> you upgrade. On WordPress.com, it took quite a long time to add that table to each of the millions of blogs there! It&#8217;s probably something that an external plugin should handle. It&#8217;ll have to be linked from the MU download page and hopefully talked about enough that nobody tries to upgrade without it.

The script was discovered by one of the sites readers on a virtual private server (VPS). The acquired script is written in PHP and performs brute force cracking attempts to WordPress admin accounts. </p>\n<blockquote><p>While this particular version is relatively simple, the power behind the script and the MySQL database allows the attacker to distribute the attacks not only by sites, but also by passwords tried as well.</p></blockquote>\n<p>The article goes into detail explaining how the script works and suggests the typical security precautions such as using strong passwords, changing the admin username and limiting the admin login page to only your IP address. Brute force attacks on WordPress are nothing new but it&#8217;s interesting to see this approach using a distributed technique. </p>\n<p>Hat tip to <a href=\"http://twitter.com/wpvibe/statuses/6208163666\" target=\"_blank\">WPVibe</a>.</p>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Mon, 30 Nov 2009 19:37:45 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"Jeff Chandler\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:13;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:27:\"Dev Blog: A Little Support?\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:39:\"http://wordpress.org/development/?p=986\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:58:\"http://wordpress.org/development/2009/11/a-little-support/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:11122:\"<p>Thanksgiving was last week, and I thought about doing a post to thank the people who contribute to WordPress core, since this is a group of people I&#8217;m thankful for on a daily basis. I started a draft, and then realized that with 2.9 in beta, we&#8217;ll have a release announcement sometime in the next few weeks (barring unforeseen complications, etc), and all the core contributors will be thanked then. Though I think it&#8217;s worth giving thanks every day for the people who make WordPress possible, I don&#8217;t like to clutter up anyone&#8217;s feed readers with repetitive posts, so I decided to wait until today for my post, and to focus solely on the other group I&#8217;d planned to include: <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/\">support forum</a> volunteers.</p>\n<p>Forum volunteers don&#8217;t get a lot of flashy attention. There aren&#8217;t flame wars about whether or not the support forums should be commercial instead of free and community-run. There generally aren&#8217;t big arguments and debates over whose point of view is the right one. What the forums do have is amazing volunteers who give their time to help other WordPress users and developers learn. People who only know a little answer easy questions that maybe they&#8217;ve only recently learned the answers to themselves. People with more expert skills help troubleshoot larger issues. If someone offers advice that could be better, others will add their solutions to the mix. Of all the WordPress users I&#8217;ve met in person, not one person got started without visiting the forums. In many cases, people turn to the forums even before the Codex.

href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/\">support forums at WordPress.org</a>.</p>\n<p>As we close out 2009 and get closer to 2010, it would be great for us to start thinking about some ways we could make it easier/more rewarding for people to be involved in the forums and other aspects of the open source project. I&#8217;ve started a <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/topic/336953?replies=1\">forum thread</a> to discuss some ideas with the thought that we can try a couple after the holidays and see what takes.</p>\n<p>* <em>I say almost because let&#8217;s face it, we all get caught in the traps of trolls sometimes, and patience can be hard to keep when someone is a jerk. So a reminder to all who use the forums: be nice to the people who are trying to help you! <img src=\"http://wordpress.org/development/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif\" alt=\":)\" class=\"wp-smiley\" /> </em></p>\n<p>P.S. While I&#8217;m at it, here&#8217;s another tip/request. Search the forums for your problem before posting; if it&#8217;s already been answered before (often more than once), you&#8217;re kind of wasting people&#8217;s time by posting it again without trying the previous solutions first. Please respect the time of the volunteers by searching first (and mention in your post what you&#8217;ve already tried).</p>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Mon, 30 Nov 2009 18:59:27 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:10:\"Jane Wells\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:14;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:28:\"BuddyPress: BuddyPress 1.1.3\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:28:\"http://buddypress.org/?p=711\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:49:\"http://buddypress.org/blog/news/buddypress-1-1-3/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:522:\"<p>The latest <a href=\"http://buddypress.org/about/\">BuddyPress 1.1</a> point release is now <a href=\"http://buddypress.org/download\">available for download</a>.</p>\n<p>This release fixes a number of remaining issues with the 1.1 release of BuddyPress.

Here&#8217;s what you missed:</p>\n<p>First, there&#8217;s <a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/2009/11/14/john-hawkins-plugins-nyc09/\">John Hawkins&#8217; talk from WordCamp NYC on how to build your very first WordPress plugin</a>. He&#8217;s given this talk at a handful of WordCamps this year, but it&#8217;s always packed with great information and serves as a great introduction to building a very basic plugin.</p>\n<p>Next, <a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/2009/11/14/jose-fontainhas-i18n-nyc09/\">Automattician José Fontainhas gives an overview of how to properly provide for internationalization in your WordPress projects</a>, including a brief look at the new GlotPress system. If you&#8217;re building something for WordPress, you should take a look at this presentation to learn how easy it is to help the community translate your project. Much of the WordPress community is not English-speaking.</p>\n<p>The last presentation from WordCamp NYC comes from Serena Epstein and Shannon Houser: a talk titled &#8220;<a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/2009/11/14/epstein-houser-wordpress-classroom-innovation-nyc09/\">WordPress As a Gateway Drug</a>&#8220;. It&#8217;s about how the use of WordPress in an undergraduate coursework setting has influenced students to continue the creative process even post-graduation. It has a unique style and flavor—check it out.</p>\n<p>And lastly, we were pointed in the direction of a wonderful example of a tutorial coming out of the WordPress community. In this case, it&#8217;s <a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/2009/11/29/using-wordpress-com-geotagging/\">Jesse P. Luna&#8217;s howto on using the new WordPress.com geotagging feature</a>. It&#8217;s great to see these kinds of things come from dedicated WordPress users like all of you.</p>\n<p>This is a great moment to remind you that if you have a WordPress feature you think could use a great tutorial, there&#8217;s never a better time to create one and send it on to us! If you&#8217;ve seen a tutorial or have made one, <a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/contact/\">drop us a line and let us know about it</a>.</p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a suggestion, here&#8217;s one: are you one of the many people who are working with WordPress 2.9-beta? There are some excellent new features coming in 2.9, and there will be lots of WordPress users looking for information on those features. <strong>Why not consider whipping up a brief and to-the-point tutorial on one of the new features coming in 2.9?</strong></p>\n<p>Have a great week!</p>\n  <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gocomments/wptvblog.wordpress.com/105/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/comments/wptvblog.wordpress.com/105/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godelicious/wptvblog.wordpress.com/105/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/delicious/wptvblog.wordpress.com/105/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gostumble/wptvblog.wordpress.com/105/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/stumble/wptvblog.wordpress.com/105/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godigg/wptvblog.wordpress.com/105/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/digg/wptvblog.wordpress.com/105/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/goreddit/wptvblog.wordpress.com/105/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/reddit/wptvblog.wordpress.com/105/\" /></a> <img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=blog.wordpress.tv&blog=5310177&post=105&subd=wptvblog&ref=&feed=1\" /></div>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Mon, 30 Nov 2009 05:45:22 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:11:\"Ryan Markel\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:16;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:77:\"Weblog Tools Collection: How To Track Outbound Links From Your WordPress Blog\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:106:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/11/29/how-to-track-outbound-links-from-your-wordpress-blog/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:106:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/11/29/how-to-track-outbound-links-from-your-wordpress-blog/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:2277:\"<p>As a webmaster we are all concerned about the number of links that are coming into the blog and all the other stats that usually concern the traffic to the blog.

One of the reasons I want to track this on <a href=\"http://techie-buzz.com/\" target=\"_blank\">my blog</a>, is to understand and know what kind of software or services people download or visit, and then try and customize posts to include software or services that are liked by the readers.</p>\n<p>Tracking outgoing links from your blog is pretty easy, all you need is a free Google Analytics account and the <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/google-analyticator/\" target=\"_blank\">Google Analyticator WordPress Plugin</a>.</p>\n<p><img title=\"outbound_link_tracking\" border=\"0\" alt=\"outbound_link_tracking\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/outbound_link_tracking.png\" width=\"528\" height=\"121\" /> </p>\n<p>Once you have installed and activated the plugin, head to the options page and scroll down to the advanced options till you see Outbound link tracking.

On the one hand, the new parents are taking on someone who they didn&#8217;t help raise thus far, which forces them to &#8220;learn&#8221; the ways of the new child to communicate well with them. On the other hand, the new parent is left with the fear that there will come a day that the old parent will come to claim their rights on the child.</p>\n<p>The analogy I brought can go some way in building an intuition about the problem of orphaned plugins, but if we want to go beyond just intuition we need to take a more in-depth look at the subject. I hope such a look will inspire a discussion that will benefit us all.</p>\n<h2>The chase for a faster plugin installation</h2>\n<p>My prime example for an orphan plugin for this post will be the <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/improved-plugin-installation/\">&#8220;Improved Plugin Installation&#8221;</a> plugin. What is it:</p>\n<p>This plugin is an improvement to the current WP 2.7 plugin installation methods. It allows you to install one or more plugins simply by typing their names or download URLs in a textarea.<br />\nThis means you can install all your favorite WordPress plugins in one go!<br />\nFurthermore, a bookmarklet is included which lets you install plugins directly from an external plugin download page. (See screenshots tab)</p>\n<p>Sounds heavenly. Why? because the &#8220;add a plugin&#8221; feature that AUTOMATIC introduced, And the already existing, <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/one-click-plugin-updater/\">&#8220;One Click Plugin Updater&#8221;</a> &#8211; where both lacking in exactly what &#8220;Improved Plugin Installation&#8221; came to solve. That is &#8211; they didn&#8217;t allow for a massive, fast, easy way to upload a lot of (predefined) plugins in one time. This is, to my opinion, the biggest cost effective solution for a bottleneck in today&#8217;s WordPress installation, and it was solved! Or was it?</p>\n<p>After the release of WP 2.8, <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/topic/279536?replies=7\">me and others </a> suddenly discovered that &#8220;Improved Plugin Installation&#8221; stopped working. 5 Months later, after seeing that no programmer came forward to fix the problem, I published the cry on the forums &#8220;An orphan plugin is looking to be updated: &#8220;Improved Plugin Installation&#8221; &#8220;, 5 days have passed, and no one replied.</p>\n<h2>So what do you think should happen next?</h2>\n<p>This question is directed at you, the reader. But with your permission, I will assume my prerogative.</p>\n<p>The first one is that there is a need for someone (who knows plugin programming) to take on himself to fix &#8220;Improved Plugin Installation&#8221; for WordPress 2.8+. This conclusion is the easy one.</p>\n<p>The bigger question here is what is the pattern behind the story. What is missing in our community that we do not adopt orphaned plugins? My personal answer (and I hope for yours as well) is the further improvement of the &#8220;Compatibility&#8221; section in the WordPress Plugin Directory.<br />\nUp until now the Compatibility window gave an action item for just two audiences: The plugin users (don&#8217;t download the file) and the plugin authors (Maybe I should fix my plugin). But there is a third audience who are not being addressed. That is the other developers in the community. Imagine that a plugin is voted incompatible (above X consensus level), for T amount of time. I hope that there is a system e-mailing the plugin author letting him know that his plugin is having issues (I don&#8217;t know if there is). But what if the problem persists longer? Maybe we should have another page, for other developers to let them know that a plugin is suspect of being abandoned.<br />\nMaybe developers should commit, when uploading a plugin, to saying after what amount of time, should the system consider their plugin as an orphaned one &#8211; and to go look for someone else to be its parent.</p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t have the right answer, but I hope one of you will.</p>\n<p><strong>About the author:</strong><br />\nTal Galili is passionate for WebActivism, WordPress and Statistics.

But if mega-blogging were a thing, you would do it with WordPress. Micro-blogging is a thing, ash a lot of people do it with Twitter.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/11/24/twitter-wordpress-blogging-vs-microblogging/\">TechCrunch drops in this fray with an article comparing the comScore numbers of WordPress.com and Twitter.com</a>, which show an accelerating growth for WP.com and flattening for Twitter. I&#8217;ll talk about the data itself later, but first wanted to point out a point many overlook when trying to create a battle between the mediums.</p>\n<p><strong>New forms of social media, including micro-blogging, are complementary to blogging.</strong></p>\n<p>One of the many uses of Twitter is to link to and promote your blog posts. (And other people&#8217;s blog posts.) As we grow, so do they, and vice versa. I blog when I have something longer to say, like this. I tweet when it&#8217;s the lowest friction way to talk to my friends, or get distribution for something longer I did somewhere else.</p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not really a &#8220;versus,&#8221; it&#8217;s an &#8220;and.&#8221;</p>\n<p>Whether the Twitter team intended it or not, they&#8217;ve built a killer and highly addictive reader platform with dozens of interesting UIs on top of it.</p>\n<p>Features like <a href=\"http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009/08/14/shorten/\">WP.me</a>, <a href=\"http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009/05/12/post-by-email/\">post by email</a>, <a href=\"http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009/10/08/publicize-twitter/\">Twitter publicize</a>, <a href=\"http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009/09/07/rss-in-the-clouds/\">RSS Cloud</a>, <a href=\"http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009/11/19/a-new-p2/\">P2</a>, <a href=\"http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009/11/25/blog-subscriptions/\">email subscriptions</a>, and more stuff in the cooker is trying to tie these things together more because people who do one are highly likely to do another.</p>\n<p>As for the accuracy of underlying comScore data I would say they probably are precise but not accurate, meaning that whatever flaws they have in collection now, for example for WP.com they don&#8217;t count the custom domains or RSS readers and for Twitter they don&#8217;t count API usage or desktop clients, they&#8217;re at least self-consistent in how they do things over time. Some months they show us flat our internal stats showed growth, and vice versa. Ultimately it&#8217;s not worth anyone outside of comScore arguing how they collect their data, it&#8217;s better just to use it as one reference point alongside Quantcast (my fav), Alexa, Google Trends, Nielsen&#8230;</p>\n<p>How tweets get imported into a blog is still an open question for me. I&#8217;ve seen lots of ways people have attempted it but when a blog becomes an activity stream it becomes a weak version of all the things it aggregates, less than the sum of its parts, because of the loss of context.</p>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Sun, 29 Nov 2009

While I don&#8217;t know the technicalities involved with the translation process, I know the importance these translations have for the WordPress Project. These translations enable WordPress to be used all across the world in their native tongue which is awesome and really expands the reach of the software. </p>\n<p>The last time I checked, WordPress was available in about <a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_in_Your_Language\" target=\"_blank\">66 different languages</a>. All of these translations are possible thanks to volunteers. These translators are the primary reason why WordPress has an international following. However, there are more than 66 different languages in use across the world today and if you&#8217;re interested in translating WordPress into your specific language, check out the following resources.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Translating_WordPress\" target=\"_blank\">Translating WordPress</a> &#8211; Explains how to translate WordPress using POT, PO, and MO files. </p>\n<p><a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress_in_Your_Language\" target=\"_blank\">Installing WordPress In Your Language</a> &#8211; This article simply explains how to install WordPress in another language other than English. </p>\n<p><a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/I18n_for_WordPress_Developers\" target=\"_blank\">I18n for WordPress Developers</a> &#8211; I18n is an abbreviation for internationalization, or the process of making an application ready for translation. In the WordPress case it means marking strings, which should be translated in a special way. It is called i18n, because there are 18 letters between the I and the n. Explains how to make your plugin, theme, or application built on top of WordPress I18n compliant.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Files_For_Direct_Translation\" target=\"_blank\">Files That Need Direct Translation</a> &#8211; This Codex article is in need of editing but it contains a list of files up to WordPress 2.6 that need direct translations applied to them.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-polyglots\" target=\"_blank\">WP-Polyglots Mailing List</a> &#8211; The wp-polyglots mailing list has been created keeping the needs of translators in mind.

However, there are few things which you cannot do right now with it. For example, creating new roles, modifying role privileges and so on.</p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http://www.im-web-gefunden.de/wordpress-plugins/role-manager/\" target=\"_blank\">Role Manager plugin</a> fills in that void and adds a very robust role management interface to WordPress. Though I won’t go into much detail about the plugin, I just wanted to highlight a simple trick, using which you can disable delete functionality for post and pages and retain it with only the administrator of the blog.</p>\n<p>Disabling delete functionality may be done for several reasons, specifically on multi-author blogs. However, my sole reason for doing this is that “Precaution is better than Cure”.</p>\n<p>To disable delete functionality for post and pages, install the Role Manager plugin (if you haven’t done it already) and click on the Roles link under the Users menu, in the admin dashboard sidebar.</p>\n<p><img title=\"disable_delete_posts_feature\" border=\"0\" alt=\"disable_delete_posts_feature\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/disable_delete_posts_feature.png\" width=\"462\" height=\"287\" /> </p>\n<p>Once you are on the Roles page, browse through the roles and click on the green checkmark (if they appear) next to the privileges highlighted in the screenshot above. Don’t do this for the administrator role though.</p>\n<p>Once all the checkmarks have turned to red cross marks, the delete functionality will be disabled for the respective roles.</p>\n<p>Role Manager is an excellent plugin and will come in pretty handy for multi-author blogs. I have just highlighted one of the many things you can accomplish with this plugin, so go ahead and give it a try.</p>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 25 Nov 2009 21:15:57

/>Here comes yet another way to be notified of new upgrades for WordPress in case you need one. Google <a href=\"http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2009/11/new-software-version-notifications-for.html\" target=\"_blank\">has announced</a> that they will be using their processing power to scan the source code of websites to look for the version number of the publishing software they are using and send them a notification through Google Webmaster Tools letting them know that an upgrade is available. In the case of WordPress, the <strong></strong> meta tag was moved  to the core of WordPress in 2.5. Therefor, anyone running a version of WordPress from 2.5 and above should have it displayed in their source code unless it was either removed or edited out through an action in the functions.php file such as <strong>remove_action(&#8217;wp_head&#8217;, &#8216;wp_generator&#8217;);</strong> Also, some plugins have been created that removes the version info as well, typically security related plugins.</p>\n<p>Speaking of security, the security through obscurity argument regarding the public display of the version number of WordPress in the source code was over once the code for WordPress was available to the public. Matt Mullenweg mentioned this in his post regarding how to keep WordPress secure.</p>\n<blockquote><p>Hide the WordPress version, they say, and you’ll be fine. Uh, duh, the worm writers thought of that. Where their 1.0 might have checked for version numbers, 2.0 just tests capabilities, version number be damned.</p></blockquote>\n<p>So, I&#8217;m with Google in that including the version number in the source code can do more good than harm. In order to receive these update notifications from Google, you&#8217;ll need to have a <a href=\"https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/\" target=\"_blank\">Google Webmaster Tools account</a> with a site attached.</p>\n<p>The majority of people in the WordPress community have continuously advised removing this generator from being seen in the source code as a means of security. Will this line of thinking continue, or will we see more people add or leave it in to take advantage of the updates from Google?</p>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Mon, 23 Nov 2009 20:21:02 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"Jeff Chandler\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:31;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:60:\"Weblog Tools Collection: WordPress Plugin Releases for 11/23\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:40:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/?p=7235\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:88:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/11/23/wordpress-plugin-releases-for-1123/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:2529:\"<h3>New Plugins</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.waltervos.com/wordpress-plugins/additional-image-sizes/\">Additional image sizes</a></p>\n<p>With this plugin, users can add and remove intermediate image sizes.

That all fine and good. For most sites Apache works wonderfully, especially as it&#8217;s so easy to find information on it, on mod_rewrite and everything else that everyone else uses.</p>\n<p>One of the alternatives is <a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL25naW54Lm5ldC8=\">Nginx</a>, a really fast webserver that streaks ahead of Apache in terms of performance, but isn&#8217;t quite as easy to use. That&#8217;s partly because Apache is the default webserver on most Linux distributions and hosts. Want to try Nginx? Here&#8217;s how.</p>\n<p>Install Nginx. On Debian based systems that&#8217;s as easy as\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false;\">aptitude install nginx</pre>\n<p> Nginx doesn&#8217;t talk PHP out of the box but one way to do it is via spawn-fcgi. Here&#8217;s where it gets complicated. (Docs summarised from <a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5ob3d0b2ZvcmdlLmNvbS9uZ2lueF9waHA1X2Zhc3RfY2dpX3hjYWNoZV91YnVudHU3LjA0\">here</a>)</p>\n<ol>\n<li> Install php5-cgi. Again, on Debian systems, that&#8217;s\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false;\">aptitude install php5-cgi</pre>\n</li>\n<li> Edit /etc/nginx/sites-available/default and add the following chunk of code to the &#8220;server&#8221; section:\n<pre class=\"brush: plain;\">location ~ \\.php$ {\n        include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;\n        fastcgi_pass  127.0.0.1:9000;\n        fastcgi_index index.php;\n        fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME  /var/www/nginx-default$fastcgi_script_name;\n}</pre>\n</li>\n<li> Install lighttpd for the spawning command.\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false;\">apt-get install lighttpd</pre>\n<p> You&#8217;ll probably get an error at the end of the install if Apache is already running on port 80. Edit /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf and uncomment the line\n<pre class=\"brush: plain; gutter: false;\">server.port = 80</pre>\n<p> and change 80 to 81. Now run the apt-get command again and it will install.\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false;\">/etc/init.d/lighttpd stop</pre>\n<p> will stop lighttpd running. (You don&#8217;t need it)</li>\n<li> Create a new text file, /usr/bin/php-fastcgi with this:\n<pre class=\"brush: plain;\">#!/bin/sh\n/usr/bin/spawn-fcgi -a 127.0.0.1 -p 9000 -u nobody -f /usr/bin/php5-cgi</pre>\n<p>The user &#8220;nobody&#8221; should match the user Apache runs as to make things easier to transition.<br />\nMake it executable with\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false;\">chmod 755 /usr/bin/php-fastcgi</pre>\n</li>\n<li> Create another new file /etc/init.d/init-fastcgi and make it executable with the chmod command too. Put this in the file:\n<pre class=\"brush: plain;\">#!/bin/bash\nPHP_SCRIPT=/usr/bin/php-fastcgi\nRETVAL=0\ncase \"$1\" in\n    start)\n      $PHP_SCRIPT\n      RETVAL=$?\n  ;;\n    stop)\n      killall -9 php\n      RETVAL=$?\n  ;;\n    restart)\n      killall -9 php\n      $PHP_SCRIPT\n      RETVAL=$?\n  ;;\n    *)\n      echo \"Usage: php-fastcgi {start|stop|restart}\"\n      exit 1\n  ;;\nesac\nexit $RETVAL</pre>\n</li>\n<li> Start the PHP processes with\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false;\">/etc/init.d/init-fastcgi start</pre>\n<p> and make sure it starts on every reboot with\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false;\">update-rc.d init-fastcgi defaults</pre>\n</li>\n</ol>\n<p>That&#8217;s the PHP part of things. In Debian, the default root is &#8220;/var/www/nginx-default&#8221; so put an index.php in there to test things out. Stop Apache and start Nginx (if this is a test server only!) and visit your site. Works? Now to get WordPress and WP Super Cache working.</p>\n<p>Open up /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default in your editor and comment out the text already there with # characters. Paste the following in. Change paths and domains to suit your site.

The version of Debian I use doesn&#8217;t have gzip support compiled in, but if your system does, take a look at the gzip_static directive. Thanks <a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL3R3aXR0ZXIuY29tL3NpdmVsL3N0YXR1c2VzLzU4ODcwMTYxNTU=\">sivel</a>.</p>\n<p>Finally, edit /etc/nginx/nginx.conf and make sure the user in the following line matches the user above:\n<pre class=\"brush: plain;\">user www-data;</pre>\n<p>I changed it to &#8220;nobody nogroup&#8221;.</p>\n<p>Now, stop Apache and start Nginx:\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false;\">/etc/init.d/apache stop; /etc/init.d/nginx start</pre>\n<p>WP Super Cache will complain about mod_rewrite missing, and you should disable mobile support.</p>\n<p>How has it worked out? I only switched on Friday. The server did do more traffic than normal, but I put that down to <a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL29jYW9pbWguaWUvZmxvb2RpbmctaW4tY29yay8=\">the floods in Cork</a>. Weekend traffic was perfectly normal.</p>\n<p>Load on the site is slightly higher, probably because my anti-bot mod_rewrite rules aren&#8217;t working now. Pingdom stats for the site haven&#8217;t changed drastically and I think the Minify plugin stopped working, must debug that this week. Switching web servers is a huge task. I disabled mobile support in Supercache because I need to translate those rules to Nginx ones. A little birdie told me that he&#8217;s going to be writing a blog post on this very subject soon. Here&#8217;s hoping he&#8217;ll put fingers to keys soon.</p>\n<p>Have you switched to Nginx? How has your switch worked out for you?</p>\n<p><strong>Related Posts</strong><ul><li><a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL29jYW9pbWguaWUvd3Atc3VwZXItY2FjaGUtMDg0LXRoZS1nYXJiYWdlLWNvbGxlY3Rvci8=\" rel=\"\">WP Super Cache 0.8.4, the garbage collector</a></li><li><a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL29jYW9pbWguaWUvd3Atc3VwZXItY2FjaGUtMDg3Lw==\" rel=\"\">WP Super Cache 0.8.7</a></li><li><a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL29jYW9pbWguaWUvd3Atc3VwZXItY2FjaGUtMC05LTUv\" rel=\"\">WP Super Cache 0.9.5</a></li></ul></p> <img src=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?view=1&post_id=89495533\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" />\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Mon, 23 Nov 2009 12:34:53 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"Donncha\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:33;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:89:\"WordPress.tv: Weekly Recap: WYSIWYG Theming, Plugin Development, jQuery, and Child Themes\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"http://blog.wordpress.tv/?p=102\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:84:\"http://blog.wordpress.tv/2009/11/23/last-week-on-wordpress-tv-nov-15%e2%80%94nov-21/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:3637:\"<div class=\"snap_preview\"><br /><p>We had another light publishing week here on WordPress.tv last week, but we have the first of a bunch of WordCamp video for you tonight in a special weekend delivery to make up for lost time.</p>\n<p>The one video we did get out for you was the first video to come out of the excellent WordCamp New York City, and it features an awesome concept that came out of the Google Summer of Code. It&#8217;s <a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/2009/11/14/daryl-koopersmith-elastic-nyc09/\">Daryl Koopersmith&#8217;s talk on the Elastic WYSIWYG theme tool</a>; you should check it out.</p>\n<p>Tonight, we have three more videos, also from WordCamp NYC. First, Matt Martz gives <a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/2009/11/14/matt-martz-plugins-nyc09/\">an instructional course on intermediate plugin development</a>. Jim Doran talks to us about <a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/2009/11/14/jim-doran-jquery-nyc09/\">using jQuery when you develop for WordPress</a>. And lastly, Allan Cole discusses <a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/2009/11/14/allan-cole-child-themes-nyc09/\">the increasingly important role child themes take in WordPress development</a>.</p>\n<p>We have more WordCamp video on the way this week. To stay updated, follow <a href=\"http://twitter.com/wordpresstv\">@wordpresstv on Twitter</a>.</p>\n<p>Last week, I asked for suggestions for future video tutorials, and we received a handful of suggestions that I think are very good. I think you&#8217;ll see some information on those topics in the future. This week, I have a different request of the community.</p>\n<p><strong>We need volunteer transcribers and translators.</strong></p>\n<p>To get started, we have video coming in soon from <a href=\"http://kyoto.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamp Kyoto</a>. Almost all of it is (of course) in Japanese—and much of the WordPress community would still love to see those presentations but may not understand the Japanese language. If you are Japanese-speaking and could help us by volunteering to transcribe or translate the video from WordCamp Kyoto, please either leave a comment on this post or <a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/contact/\">drop us a line using this contact form</a>.</p>\n<p>Thanks, and if you&#8217;re celebrating Thanksgiving this week, have a great holiday week. Don&#8217;t forget <a href=\"http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009/11/20/thanksgiving-video-contest/\">the contest currently going on at WordPress.com</a>—a video contest!

was not meant to be. I had high hopes for <a href=\"http://intensedebate.com\">Intense Debate</a> but the drawbacks outweighed the positives in our case. I was really looking forward to a few of the features that I thought might bring more interactivity to the blog and encourage readers to have meatier discussions. As you notice below, we have turned off Intense Debate and gone back to the original comment form. Below is a list of the some of the features I was really looking forward to and our experiences with them.</p>\n<p>I would like to preface this discussion by saying that I screwed up the install by adding this blog onto the wrong account and that added to some of our woes. The account bug that followed (we received some help via the support email) was caused by my fat fingering.</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Better overall look and feel of the comment section of a blog: I liked the look and feel. The AJAX interface is spiffy and quite versatile.</li>\n<li>Commenter reputation: I really like this feature and this was one of my top priorities for installing ID. I like it and it worked well. Add this to &#8220;last post of commenter&#8221; and it is a killer feature to give good commenters some free publicity.</li>\n<li>Comment voting: Useful for readers who want to join the discussion. Also very useful to determine spamminess of a comment. I found it to add to the community feel and found myself looking for votes on comments in hot posts.</li>\n<li>Social commenting: I saw a bunch of people use various types of profiles to log in and comment. I think this feature added interesting bits of information about commenters and might have prompted more readers to comment. I cannot say for sure. I had trouble staying logged in because of my fat fingering and caused myself some headaches.</li>\n<li>Reply to comments by Email: Useful feature. Did any of my readers use it? I have no clue. Did I use it? No.</li>\n<li>Automatic folding of threads: Does it work? Yes! Does it have the desired effect? No. On Weblog Tools Collection, automatic comment thread folding meant that a lot of relevant comments were overlooked by readers who ended up saying the same things over again and missing much of the conversation. It just did not have the right feel.</li>\n<li>Comment synchronization with the blog: We were able to roll back to the default commenting system because of this feature and are thankful for that. But the comments on hot/active posts were not quite at par with actual activity on the posts. This lack of real time updates resulted in less comments and conversations.</li>\n<li>Ability to add polls to comments: Cool feature in concept, barely used in reality. A relevant poll added to a hot post might get a few results but readers don&#8217;t use that kind of interactivity unless they want to come back and check the results, which is often not the case. Can be done with a plugin.</li>\n<li>Better spam filtering and moderation features: ID adds the ability to use their own filters in addition to Akismet. But I found these to be cumbersome and Akismet not as responsive. I can&#8217;t quite explain this gripe but I can say that too many comments were ending up in moderation and not enough of the ones that I marked as spam were then treated as spam on subsequent attempts. I don&#8217;t think the WordPress feature that allows previous commenters&#8217; comments to be posted without moderation works with IS. Blacklisted words did not appear to work as well as I have come to expect them to work. There is also no way to &#8220;remember me&#8221; on the ID login page, which is annoying.  Having to add co-authors on as admins of the blog on ID meant they got bugged with all the Spam and also meant that they had to be registered users. These reasons were probably the most annoying to me and my fellow authors and resulted in us backing out.</li>\n<li>Ability to record video comments: Cool feature but not used at all on this blog. I see <em>some</em> video comments on TechCrunch but our readers just did not care.</li>\n<li>Better comment curation for multi-author blogs: There is no way to send moderation emails to individual authors (which is a pain for multi-author blogs) and the moderation emails were just unfamiliar and not easy to get used to. Again, not fast enough in moderation and approval of comments.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>In addition to the good and the bad above, I also received some disturbing feedback which suggested that some people would not comment on a blog that runs Intense Debate. I have no such qualm and would really like to hear from folks who feel this way. Why this angst?</p>\n<p>In conclusion I have to say that I think Intense Debate was a mixed bag for us. If you are not thoroughly used to the WordPress comments system and do not have tens of thousands of comments, it is worth a shot. The ability to roll back is fantastic for buyers&#8217; remorse and I think there is a lot of potential.</p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE: And deactivating the plugin was not enough to stop it from acting upon incoming comments. Comments were borked since ID was deactivated yesterday. The plugin files have now been deleted and that seems to allow comments to flow back through. Sorry for the trouble.</strong></p>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Sun, 22 Nov 2009 22:58:24 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:10:\"Mark Ghosh\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:38;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:59:\"Weblog Tools Collection: WordPress Theme Releases for 11/21\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:40:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/?p=7227\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:89:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/11/21/wordpress-theme-releases-for-1121-2/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1961:\"<h4><a href=\"http://www.thehostingfinder.com/blog/thf204/\">THF204</a></h4>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.thehostingfinder.com/demo/index.php?wptheme=THF204\"><img title=\"THF204\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/THF204.gif\" alt=\"THF204\" width=\"200\" height=\"156\" /></a></p>\n<p>Three column, simple clean theme with two widgetised sidebars.</p>\n<h4><a href=\"http://websitetheme.com/archives/18-BlackLens-Wordpress-theme.html\">BlackLens</a></h4>\n<p><a href=\"http://websitetheme.com/wpdemo/?themedemo=blacklens\"><img title=\"BlackLenstheme\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/BlackLenstheme.jpg\" alt=\"BlackLenstheme\" width=\"200\" height=\"152\" /></a></p>\n<p>BlackLens is a black, white and pink theme with a floral decoration in the top right of the page.

It only takes one key press, and the corpse of the original opening marker is retained, allowing you to reinstate it with the deletion of a single character.</p>\n<p>Props to <a href=\"http://aleembawany.com/2009/01/27/lazy-block-comment-trick/\">Aleem Bawany</a> for the second trick (he uses <code>//*/</code> as the closing comment, which works pretty much the same way).</p>\n<p>What other commenting tricks do you know?</p>\n  <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gocomments/markjaquith.wordpress.com/369/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/comments/markjaquith.wordpress.com/369/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godelicious/markjaquith.wordpress.com/369/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/delicious/markjaquith.wordpress.com/369/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gostumble/markjaquith.wordpress.com/369/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/stumble/markjaquith.wordpress.com/369/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godigg/markjaquith.wordpress.com/369/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/digg/markjaquith.wordpress.com/369/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/goreddit/markjaquith.wordpress.com/369/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/reddit/markjaquith.wordpress.com/369/\" /></a> <img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=markjaquith.wordpress.com&blog=316&post=369&subd=markjaquith&ref=&feed=1\" /></div>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Sat, 21 Nov 2009 04:49:41 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:12:\"Mark Jaquith\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:40;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:67:\"Weblog Tools Collection: How to Create Micro Blogs Within WordPress\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:96:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/11/21/how-to-create-micro-blogs-within-wordpress/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:96:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/11/21/how-to-create-micro-blogs-within-wordpress/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7322:\"<p>I recently started out with a microblog on <a href=\"http://techie-buzz.com\" target=\"_blank\">my site</a>, where I wanted to quickly share content I find on the Internet. Before I started out I had an option of using the <a href=\"http://p2theme.com/\" target=\"_blank\">P2 theme</a> to post quick content on it. However, I shelved the idea since I did and do not have much time to customize the P2 theme to match the look and feel of my current site.</p>\n<p>This led to a big dilemma since I wanted 3 things:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Start a Micro Blog and post quick content on it. </li>\n<li>Make sure that Google Indexes the micro blog content as it does with the other content. </li>\n<li>Create separate feeds for the Micro Blog and the rest of the content. </li>\n</ul>\n<p>Well, i was able to do all of these things without having to add new plugins or create a new blog. Here are the steps I followed to do it. Hopefully many of you will find this useful, and in turn also understand how powerful WordPress is when you want to customize it the way you want it to be.</p>\n<h3>Create Categories &amp; Modify Loops to Segregate Content</h3>\n<p>The first few steps include creating a separate category for the Microblog and segregating content accordingly.</p>\n<h4>Create Category for your Microblog</h4>\n<p>The first thing I wanted to do was to segregate the main content from the micro blog content on the home page, so I went ahead and created a new category called “Microblog”, where I post all the Microblog content.</p>\n<h4>Exclude Microblog Content from Main Loop</h4>\n<p>After creating a separate category, I needed the content from this category to be displayed separately on the site and not with the regular loop. To do that, you will have to edit your template file for the home page, usually index.php in your WordPress theme directory.</p>\n<p>To do that you will need to add the code given below before checking if posts exist.</p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<pre><span>   1:</span> query_posts($query_string . <span>\'&amp;cat=-123\'</span>); <span>//excludes micro blog category</span></pre>\n<pre><span>   2:</span> <span>//continue regular WP loop</span></pre>\n<pre><span>   3:</span> <span>if</span> (have_posts()) : </pre>\n<pre><span>   4:</span>   <span>while</span> (have_posts()) : the_post();</pre>\n<pre><span>   5:</span>       <span>//display posts </span></pre>\n<pre><span>   6:</span>   endwhile:</pre>\n<pre><span>   7:</span> <span>else</span> : </pre>\n<pre><span>   8:</span>     <span>//show errors </span></pre>\n<pre><span>   9:</span> endif;</pre>\n</p></div>\n</div>\n<p>The code query_posts&#8230; instructs WordPress to ignore categories which have an id 123.&#160; Please not that you need to provide the minus(-) symbol before the category id. You will need to specify comma separated values to skip multiple categories.</p>\n<h4>Only Display Microblog Content in The Loop</h4>\n<p>Since I wanted Google to index the content from the Microblog, I wanted to display in on the home page, for this I needed to run another loop, which only displays content from the Microblog.</p>\n<p>For that you need to add the following code:</p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<pre><span>   1:</span> query_posts(<span>\'category_name=microblog&amp;posts_per_page=5\'</span>); <span>//only display microblog posts</span></pre>\n<pre><span>   2:</span> <span>if</span>(have_posts()) :</pre>\n<pre><span>   3:</span>     <span>while</span>(haveposts()) : the_post();</pre>\n<pre><span>   4:</span>         <span>//show posts</span></pre>\n<pre><span>   5:</span>     endwhile;</pre>\n<pre><span>   6:</span> <span>else</span>:</pre>\n<pre><span>   7:</span>     <span>//show errors</span></pre>\n<pre><span>   8:</span> endif;</pre>\n</p></div>\n</div>\n<p>In this case, the query_posts only fetched posts from a particular category we specified as the category_name and skipped the rest of it.</p>\n<p>Using the above tricks you now have different sections on your blog home page which segregates content based on categories. You can find more information about skipping and querying certain categories by visiting the <a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop\" target=\"_blank\">WordPress Codex entries for The Loop</a>.</p>\n<h3>Creating Different Feeds for Main and Microblog</h3>\n<p>Now that you have been able to separate content from your main blog and the microblog, it is now time to create separate feeds for them. This is much more simpler than segregating content above and only requires few changes in your feed URL.</p>\n<p>For example if your main feed URL is <strong>http://example.com/feed</strong> you will have to change it to <strong>http://example.com/feed?cat=-123</strong>. Similar to the skip rule in the query above, -123 will ignore posts from the category you specify.</p>\n<p>Creating a separate feed for your Microblog is much more simpler, all you need to do is use the current URL for the Microblog category and add /feed to it. Your Microblog feed will be <strong><a href=\"http://example.com/microblog/feed\">http://example.com/microblog/feed</a></strong>. </p>\n<p>Since you are offering multiple feeds, you might also want to add them to your header.php, so browsers with automatic feed discovery can discover all your feeds. To that, remove the regular feed/RSS link tags from your header and add this. Replace the feed URLs with your own.</p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<pre><span>   1:</span> <span>&lt;</span><span>link</span> <span>rel</span><span>=\"alternate\"</span> <span>type</span><span>=\"application/rss+xml\"</span> <span>title</span><span>=\"Techie Buzz RSS Feed\"</span> <span>href</span><span>=\"http://feeds.techie-buzz.com/techiebuzz\"</span> <span>/&gt;</span> </pre>\n<pre><span>   2:</span> <span>&lt;</span><span>link</span> <span>rel</span><span>=\"alternate\"</span> <span>type</span><span>=\"application/rss+xml\"</span> <span>title</span><span>=\"Techie Buzz Microblog\"</span> <span>href</span><span>=\"http://feeds.techie-buzz.com/tbmicroblog\"</span> <span>/&gt;</span></pre>\n</p></div>\n</div>\n<p><img title=\"multiple_feeds\" border=\"0\" alt=\"multiple_feeds\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/multiple_feeds.png\" width=\"214\" height=\"106\" /> </p>\n<p>Doing this will ensure that whenever a user tries to subscribe to you feeds, they will see multiple options as shown above.</p>\n<h3>Posting Quickly to Your Microblog</h3>\n<p>Now that you have your Microblog setup and ready to go, it would be more appropriate that you can quickly post content to it.</p>\n<p>To do that change your default category for posting to “Microblog” and then drag the Quick Press bookmarklet from your Tools menu to your browser bookmarks bar and start posting. Watch the video below to see how you can use Quick Press to quickly post content to your site.</p>\n<p align=\"center\"></p>\n<p>The above tricks will not create a <em>real</em> Microblog, but it will eventually help you to segregate content and run multiple smaller blogs within your major blog and offer them to subscribers. I would still prefer to use the P2 theme for the above task, however customizing it to match the look and feel is a lengthy process and hopefully it should be quicker in the future.</p>\n<p>The above tricks might be good or they might not be that good. Do give me your feedback on what you think about it and whether or not your found it helpful.</p>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Sat, 21 Nov 2009 04:01:56 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:12:\"Keith Dsouza\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:41;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:46:\"Weblog Tools Collection: The New P2 Is Awesome\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:40:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/?p=7215\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:75:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/11/20/the-new-p2-is-awesome/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1941:\"<p>During WordCamp New York, I and many others had the chance to view a demo of the new P2 theme that will be released to WordPress.org users in due time. It&#8217;s already live for WordPress.com users in case you use that system. The New P2 improves on the first version by adding support for custom post types. For example, the theme has built in content types for a blog post, status updates, quotes, or links. These specific content types can be designed to give each an individual style. The first thing that comes to my mind when I saw this in action was Tumblr which does a great job styling the various types of content you have to choose from. Custom post types will be available in WordPress 2.9.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/p2posttypes.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/p2posttypes-300x87.png\" alt=\"p2posttypes\" title=\"p2posttypes\" width=\"300\" height=\"87\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-7216\" /></a></p>\n<p>The new P2 has also been reworked from the ground up so that it can be used as a parent theme and then extended with child themes. Andy Peatling says:</p>\n<blockquote><p>This will allow theme designers to create awesome new theme designs without having to duplicate all of the existing P2 features. We’ve streamlined the HTML of the theme so that it is much more flexible for creating new designs using CSS.</p></blockquote>\n<p>Although it&#8217;s not shown in the screenshots, I was told that the new P2 will contain media uploading so that images can be added to posts.

WordPress has been free and open source software from the very beginning, Windows not so much, but we&#8217;ve always supported as many platforms as possible and for at least 4 years now you could run WP on Windows and IIS (Internet Information Services).</p>\n<p>Choice and competition are great for spurring innovation and better for users and I believe open source software is a good thing even if it&#8217;s on a proprietary platform. (Just like we have an open source <a href=\"http://iphone.wordpress.org/\">iPhone application</a>, or encourage people to use <a href=\"http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/\">Firefox</a> on Windows.)</p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re interested, check out <a href=\"http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/exec/ozzie/2009/11-17PDC.mspx\">the full transcript of the keynote from PDC</a> or watch <a href=\"http://microsoftpdc.com/Sessions/Key01\">the video of the keynote</a>.</p>\n<p>We also created this FAQ in case you had more questions about what was announced.</p>\n<p><strong>What did you announce about WordPress at Microsoft PDC 09?</strong><br />\nAs part of the introduction of the Windows Azure platform, we announced that self-hosted WordPress can be run in an Azure environment on an open source stack of Apache, MySQL, and PHP. Showing MySQL in particular at a Microsoft conference was unusual.</p>\n<p><strong>Are you moving WordPress.com to Azure?</strong><br />\nNo. <a href=\"http://www.wordpress.com\">WordPress.com</a>, which is Automattic&#8217;s hosted blogging service, is going to stay on its existing infrastructure. Martin Cron from the Cheezburger Network launched a new blog <a href=\"http://oddlyspecific.com/\">Oddly Specific</a> on Azure, which some people confused with Automattic.</p>\n<p><strong>Do you use Azure at all?</strong><br />\nYes, we&#8217;ve been testing out their blob storage as an alternative to Amazon S3 and Rackspace Cloudfiles. We don&#8217;t currently use it in production.</p>\n<p><strong>Doesn&#8217;t this conflict with your open source orientation?</strong><br />\nNo. We actually think it&#8217;s going to help the spread of open source to have the Free and open Web stack get more support and deployment through Microsoft&#8217;s cloud infrastructure, which they&#8217;re investing quite a bit in. Besides, as I like to say, once you get a taste of Freedom it&#8217;s hard to go back. <img src=\"http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif\" alt=\":)\" class=\"wp-smiley\" />

WP Super Cache is a page caching plugin for WordPress that will significantly speed up your website.</p>\n<p>New in this release are 2 translations.

Please, if you use their translations, drop by their sites and leave a thank you comment! They&#8217;ve been very patient with me as I fixed gettext bugs and added new text. Both have blogged about the translations if you need to know more: <a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL2dpZGliYW8ubmV0L2luZGV4LnBocC8yMDA5LzExLzE4L3dwLXN1cGVyLWNhY2hlLWluLWl0YWxpYW5vLw==\">Gianni</a>, <a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL2VxdWlwYWplZGVtYW5vLmluZm8vMTgvMTEvMjAwOS93cC1zdXBlci1jYWNoZS10cmFkdWNpZG8tYWwtY2FzdGVsbGFuby8=\">Omi</a>.</p>\n<p>The second major feature to go in is an &#8220;advanced&#8221; section to the debugger. This allows the plugin to check the front page every 5 minutes to make sure everything is ok. It monitors for 2 very rare problems:</p>\n<ol>\n<li> Very very occasionally, the front page becomes a gzip file that downloads. It happened here once and I examined the cache file. There was nothing wrong with it. It was perfect. I suspect Apache and mod_rewrite got confused somehow but clearing the cache fixed it. The file generated after was exactly the same size as the old one, so no chance it got &#8220;double gzipped&#8221;.</li>\n<li> In <a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL3dvcmRwcmVzcy5vcmcvc3VwcG9ydC90b3BpYy8yMzc0MTU/cmVwbGllcz02MA==\">certain rare cases</a>, where a blog has a static front page, <em>and</em> uses a permalink structure of /%category%/%postname%/, the wrong page may be cached as the front page. Even if your blog satisfies the two conditions above it may not suffer from this problem. I tried it on this blog for a few days and couldn&#8217;t reproduce it at all!</li>\n</ol>\n<p>Nevertheless, if you&#8217;re concerned edit your wp-cache-config.php and add this line:</p>\n<pre class=\"brush: php;\">$wp_super_cache_advanced_debug = 1;</pre>\n<p>Reload the admin page and you&#8217;ll see this added to the debug section:</p>\n<div align=\"center\"><a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL29jYW9pbWguaWUvd3AtY29udGVudC91cGxvYWRzLzIwMDkvMTEvYWR2YW5jZWQtZGVidWcucG5n\" rel=\"\"><img src=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/advanced-debug-300x182.png\" alt=\"advanced-debug\" title=\"advanced-debug\" width=\"300\" height=\"182\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-89495508\" /></a></div>\n<p>If activated, it will check your front page every 5 minutes. It&#8217;s not activated by default because these errors only happen to a small number of blogs. I&#8217;ve also noticed that WordPress seems to randomly forget to run the page checker from time to time. I debugged it and the job simply disappears from the wp-cron system! I&#8217;ve no idea why, but reloading the admin page schedules it again.<br />\nIf you&#8217;re still paranoid, set your cache expiry low so at least the cache files will be recycled quickly.</p>\n<h4>Caching, Minification and CDNs</h4>\n<p>Oh, there&#8217;s a new caching plugin on the scene. <a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL3dvcmRwcmVzcy5vcmcvZXh0ZW5kL3BsdWdpbnMvdzMtdG90YWwtY2FjaGUv\">W3 Total Cache</a> works like Supercache&#8217;s half-on mode but can store to memory as well as disk (like <a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL3dvcmRwcmVzcy5vcmcvZXh0ZW5kL3BsdWdpbnMvYmF0Y2FjaGUv\">Batcache</a>) but also does minification and supports CDNs. I&#8217;ve been asked a few times if I&#8217;ll support those features too but I don&#8217;t see why as other plugins already have that covered (and frankly, I don&#8217;t have time to maintain such complex features):</p>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL3dvcmRwcmVzcy5vcmcvZXh0ZW5kL3BsdWdpbnMvd3AtbWluaWZ5Lw==\">WP Minify</a> &#8220;integrates the Minify engine into your WordPress blog. Once enabled, this plugin will combine and compress JS and CSS files to improve page load time.&#8221; Thaya is very responsive and fixed a bug I reported quickly.</li>\n<li>There are any number of <a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL3dvcmRwcmVzcy5vcmcvZXh0ZW5kL3BsdWdpbnMvc2VhcmNoLnBocD9xPUNETg==\">CDN plugins</a> for WordPress. I don&#8217;t use a CDN so I can&#8217;t recommend one but <a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL3dvcmRwcmVzcy5vcmcvZXh0ZW5kL3BsdWdpbnMvb3NzZGwtY2RuLW9mZi1saW5rZXIv\">OSSDL CDN Off Linker</a> might be worth a shot. <a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL21hcmsub3NzZGwuZGUvMjAwOS8wOC9yZXdyaXRpbmctdXJscy1mb3Itd29yZHByZXNzLWFuZC1jZG4v\">This post</a> on it mentions Supercache plus, a fork of this plugin.</li>\n</ol>\n<h4>Traffic Spikes and Benchmarks</h4>\n<p>I really should collect more of these. A few weeks ago Mark Pilgrim <a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL2RpdmVpbnRvbWFyay5vcmcvYXJjaGl2ZXMvMjAwOS8xMC8xOS90aGUtcG9pbnQ=\">blogged about</a> how his book had been republished by a 3rd party and put up for sale on Amazon. His book was published under the GNU Free Documentation License so that&#8217;s perfectly legal to do, even if a little unusual as it can be downloaded from Mark&#8217;s website and is for sale by his publisher. The blog post generated a lot of interest and a few days later I received a donation from Mark, followed by a thank you email. I&#8217;m a big fan of what Mark does, so if it had been a physical cheque or a letter I&#8217;d have framed it!<br />\nA few days after that he <a href=\"http://ocaoimh.ie/wp-content/plugins/feed-statistics.php?url=aHR0cDovL3R3aXR0ZXIuY29tL2RpdmVpbnRvbWFyay9zdGF0dXNlcy81MTEzNjk4NzUx\">tweeted the following graph</a>.

The more time I spend talking to Matt and with other employees of Automattic, the more I don&#8217;t understand where these thoughts and feelings of <i>evilness</i> come from. Sure, there is a decision made from time to time that a vocal group of people disagree with but you can&#8217;t make the right decision 100% of the time. Let&#8217;s take a closer look at Automattic as it relates to WordPress.</p>\n<p>When I interviewed Matt at WordCamp New York, one of the things I asked him to address is the notion that Automattic commercially benefits from those who work for free. This indeed happens but on the flip side, Automattic gives a ton back to the project and to the community. For example, I think there is a lot that can be said for the progression of WordPress thanks to the resources that Automattic has been able to provide due to their funding. It&#8217;s also worth mentioning that Automattic pays a couple of folks to work on WordPress the majority of their time such as Ryan Boren who is always slaving away committing code and Jane Wells who works on the usability front. </p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not like Automattic hoards the contributions to the project and gives nothing back. Matt said something during the interview that really stuck a chord with me and that is &#8220;<i>Automattic is just one member of the WordPress community. We are a huge contributor. Myself, Jane everyone involved tries to give as much back to the WordPress community as possible.</i>&#8221; So far, I can&#8217;t see anything that portrays the individuals or the company as evil. </p>\n<p>Throughout the history of Automattic, they have developed and released a number of WordPress plugins to the community. They have also taken some of their paid offerings such as VideoPress and released those to the public as well. The entire VideoPress framework to be exact. They don&#8217;t have to do this but they do so because Matt wants Automattic to be an excellent example of an Open Source based company. Not everything is open because hosted services do not have to abide by the GPL since there is no distribution taking place. It&#8217;s also worth noting that Automattic has a system in place now so that when they build in a cool new feature for WordPress.com such as <a href=\"http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009/11/12/a-blog-near-you/\" target=\"_blank\">Geotagging</a> they also build a plugin to release for the WordPress.org side of things granted, the release isn&#8217;t always immediate. </p>\n<h2>Verdict:</h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s my opinion that neither Matt Mullenweg or Automattic is evil. They don&#8217;t have evil tendencies and they are not out to screw people. If that were the case, I can&#8217;t see how WordPress could become the piece of software it is today. So my question to you is, do you think either is evil and if so, why? </p>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Thu, 19 Nov 2009 01:03:51 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"Jeff Chandler\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:49;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:61:\"Alex King: WPWeekly Episode 79 – Alex King And WPHelpCenter\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:27:\"http://alexking.org/?p=3790\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:80:\"http://www.wptavern.com/wpweekly-episode-79-%E2%80%93-alex-king-and-wphelpcenter\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:909:\"<p>I enjoyed <a href=\"http://www.wptavern.com/wpweekly-episode-79-%e2%80%93-alex-king-and-wphelpcenter\" rel=\"external\">my podcast with Jeff last night</a> on <a href=\"http://www.wptavern.com/category/wordpress-weekly\" rel=\"external\">WordPress Weekly</a>.</p>\n<p>We discussed the <a href=\"http://wphelpcenter.com\">WordPress HelpCenter</a>, the <a href=\"http://carringtontheme.com\">Carrington CMS theme framework</a> and a little about Open Source business models.</p>\n<p>You can <a href=\"http://recordings.talkshoe.com/TC-34224/TS-293892.mp3\" rel=\"external\">download the MP3 file here</a>.\n<p><a href=\"http://alexking.org/blog/2009/11/18/wpweekly-episode-79-%e2%80%93-alex-king-and-wphelpcenter\">#</a> | <a href=\"http://www.wptavern.com/wpweekly-episode-79-%E2%80%93-alex-king-and-wphelpcenter\">Visit Site &raquo;</a></p>\n<img src=\"http://alexking.org/wp/?ak_action=api_record_view&id=3790&type=feed\" alt=\"\" />\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 18 Nov 2009 18:16:52 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:4:\"Alex\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}s:4:\"type\";i:128;s:7:\"headers\";a:8:{s:4:\"date\";s:29:\"Fri, 04 Dec 2009 14:34:13 GMT\";s:6:\"server\";s:9:\"LiteSpeed\";s:13:\"accept-ranges\";s:5:\"bytes\";s:10:\"connection\";s:5:\"close\";s:4:\"etag\";s:24:\"\"2cfcd-4b191d04-174423c\"\";s:13:\"last-modified\";s:29:\"Fri, 04 Dec 2009 14:30:28 GMT\";s:12:\"content-type\";s:15:\"application/xml\";s:14:\"content-length\";s:6:\"184269\";}s:5:\"build\";i:20081219;}','no'),(176,0,'_transient_timeout_feed_a5420c83891a9c88ad2a4f04584a5efc','1255065662','no'),(399,0,'_transient_feed_mod_867bd5c64f85878d03a060509cd2f92c','1259937253','no'),(451,0,'akismet_available_servers','a:2:{s:12:\"66.135.58.62\";b:1;s:12:\"66.135.58.61\";b:1;}','yes'),(452,0,'akismet_connectivity_time','1261430763','yes'),(453,0,'akismet_spam_count','5','yes'),(454,0,'category_children','a:0:{}','yes'),(234,0,'_transient_timeout_feed_mod_0ff4b43bd116a9d8720d689c80e7dfd4','1255597791','no'),
