WordPress 2.3 Tag Cloud Widget

I've been testing the new version of Wordpress since the first beta (that's part of the reason the new site design hasn't gone live yet). It's pretty sweet, but in testing, I found the tag cloud widget that comes with WP 2.3 lacking in configuration options (as in, there are none). So I set about to fix that.

Wedding Pictures Are Online!

94 of them to be precise... :)

They are all in the Wedding Pics set, so it'll be easy to browse just the wedding photos.

EDIT: (09.10.07) - Added another 100+ pictures, made individual albums for each person who gave us pictures, and added each individual set to the Wedding Photos collection.

Weight loss check-in

So it's been a while since I posted anything about my goal to drop 30 pounds before my wedding. Well, at this point, it doesn't look like it's going to happen. It seems I've hit a plateau at 263 pounds (I've been here for the better part of a month at this point).

But I just couldn't help myself...my contribution to the lolcats meme... :)

Interesting New Advertising Platform

So a while back I signed up for this new web community. It's called MyMindshare (note, that link is my affiliate link, so if you click it and sign up, it helps me out). Te general premise is that people post ads for goods and services they think are cool (but there are others that are targeted based on your profile and survey answers, more on that in a minute).

Simply Amazing…

These guys build some incredible guitars. This small pic doesn't do it justice, so give it a click and see it up close.

As of today…

Akismet has caught 5,072 spam comments since I first installed it.

And in that entire time, I've only had to moderate 5 messages (which all turned out to be spam... :) )

So yeah, I'm pretty pleased.
