Brain Dump 01

Posted by Mark | Filed under Life, Rants, WordPress

One of my goals for this year is to write more here; so while I don’t have a sin­gle idea that feels wor­thy of a full post, here’s a dump of var­i­ous things float­ing around/through my skull today.

State of the Word

Posted by Mark | Filed under MySQL, WordPress

At Word­Camp San Fran­cisco 2011, Matt Mul­len­weg gave the a pre­sen­ta­tion enti­tled State of the Word.

Unfor­tu­nately the plugin’s author has been too busy of late to update the plu­gin and one of the recent updates to Word­Press caused Now-Reading’s admin menu to break (when using the sin­gle menu option).
