Testing one two three

by Frank Paynter on April 14, 2006

I’ve shifted blog tools from Typepad to WordPress in pursuit of that illusion: control. Slowly over the next few months I hope to evolve a new format and use more tools better. Tagging is one of the tools I must master. Using Oddiophile’s Rather Fab Technorati Tag Bookmarklet I may make inroads into the wonderful world of tags. Or so Lorelle says.

If you really want to get into tags better than Oddiophile’s Bookmarklet, I recommend you take a look at The Ultimate Tag Warrior WordPress Plugin, something that really revolutionized how I use tags on my full version WordPress blog. It is really powerful and not for the timid, but you don’t seem to be very timid. ;-)

Enjoy!

Thank you! I’ll check it out.

fp,
Commenting one, two, three.

I have been reading for awhile. The new site is great, but I think the slideshow center top is a drag. So drag and drop-it! ;)

Sorry, just my .02

scruncher… do you like the current slide show better, or do you think slide shows simply suck?

Hi Frank,
Oh, I see those are real pics now? With the earlier one I thought it was ads, sorry.

The reason I mentioned it was, on the last visit I was using my older/slower laptop and the slide show really put a drain on your page load time. Your other site always loaded quickly, so I noticed it right away here.

Don’t dislike slide shows in general, but I don’t like slow page loading.

Cheers!

scruncher… on balance do you think it’s better to share the slides or not? Your site is minimalist, so I infer that less clutter is your preference in design, but say I changed the show every so often and took it down when I had no fresh content — would that be a good thing?

You are too kind. Yes I do prefer reading weblogs without moving parts ;), but sharing the slides when fresh sounds like good thing.

Thanks for listening.
