Added a few plugins today. Extended Live Archives are now rocking the “Archives” page. Check’em out in their ajax-ish goodness. Also, just for giggles, I installed Now Reading and Star Ratings. I’ll add Now Reading to the sidebar later, and Star Ratings should be active in the posts. So, as a test…
[rating:3.5] – This should be three and a half stars.
If you tried to register for the SN forums between 10am and 3pm (central) then you may not receive a confirmation/activation email. I had neglected to turn on the SMTP options for the forums. Sorry about that. If that applies to you (and I know there were 2 “guests” who were on around that time), leave a comment (or send an email) with your username and I’ll activate it through the admin panel. Or, conversely, you can just re-register and this time you should get an email for sure. Sorry about the mix up.
Just a little heads up that the forums over at SavvyNation are up and running. I got phpBB installed this morning and things seem to be looking ok. I’ve decided to get the forums up and the website finished before releasing any content. That way, when I start putting things out on iTunes, Odeo, Podpickle, etc, people will actually have something to go to.
If you guys have any interest at all, please register at the forums and I’ll make you moderators right on the spot. Even if you don’t want to “moderate” anything, having a few members would go a long way. Also, feel free to start chatting it up in there, if for no other reason than to help me make sure it’s atually working. There’s a general/off-topic section as well as things like games and movies. If you have any suggestions on addition categories to add, please let me know.
As an update on the actual podcast itself, I’ve recorded 3 episodes, which are about dated tech-news topics at this point. It’s all just practice for me. I’d like to be able to talk coherently when I “go live” with this thing. I figure I’ll get 8 or 10 “practice” episodes under my belt before I start publishing them. My plan is to do them on Mondays since it’s my only real day off. I’ll try and record in the morning, lightly edit by lunch and post episodes Monday night. At least that’s the plan. We’ll have to see how it goes.
So, anyways, register in the forums, tell your friends, all that good jazz.
Surprise! The code for the other theme I was using was so poorly commented that I just gave up. Instead, I had a random idea for a nifty green theme, started working in Photoshop and *poof*, here it is. It’s structure is based on True Blue by Steve Lam, with a 99% graphic replacement by yours truly. I’ve already started tinkering with the layout for a soon to come version 2.0. Hope you guys like it. Let me know if you see anything out of place, I probably missed a few things when I edited the CSS.
Matt out.
No sooner had I posted that last long winded post did I read, deep in the forums I found it on, that the development had forked, gotten a GUI and a new website. You can check out the new versions here. Pretty slick. This will certain ease the pain of having to encode everything by hand. Ah, the wonderous power of the internet, lol.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen this clip. Damn. Jason, this one is for you buddy…
