  • Blog Me Up Zemanta

    Source: WikipediaI came across a great new plugin for Firefox, on Techcrunch, called Zemanta.

    Zemanta is a content suggestion engine for your blog, and suggests relevant links, pictures, related content and tags using an internally developed semantic analysis engine. It really is simple to use.

    Download the plugin from Zemanta, and start writing a blogpost, and after typing 300 characters, the plugin will give you a suggestion list of Pictures you could use, as well as links relevant to your post. Really simple to use, and works like a bomb.

    Download the plugin now, and give it a try. Its Amazing :)

  • New Year = New Look

    I decided that it was time for a new look. 2008 is going to be a great year, and I have already had some good chats with a couple of guys about some exciting projects ahead.

    I searched around the net, and while there are loads of themes out there, I came across a brilliant post from Smashing Magazine, which had 100  Excellent WordPress themes. I browsed through these, and eventually set my heart on WP Premium theme from R.Bhavesh


    He released his premium theme as a free theme, which is really great. Setting up and changing over was fairly simple, and the snags I ran into  were fairly simple to sort out.

    Let me know what you think of my new look, and kick me if I forgot to put anything back :)

  • Local WordPress themes rock

    When I started setting up this wordpress blog, I was went through hundreds of potential themes. I tried a couple of out, and none of them seemed to work with what I had in mind. That was until, I came across a theme by a local South African boy, Adii. The theme is easy to use, clean and friendly. It is also widget ready, which made it a breeze installing plugins. I made a few slight adjustments, but all in all a great all round theme.

    The theme is called Clean 2 Column Adii WordPress Template and can be downloaded from adii’s site.

    Adii has also been doing some great interviews in the interweb, with various WordPress peoples. Check out a list of all of his interviews here. This dude has loads of talent there, keep an eye on him :)
