Automattic (WordPress, Akismet) should take over Twitter

I do not use my Twitter account that much, but when I read other blogs and see the many annoyances of others concerning the blue bird’s 140 character ramblings… I understand it. And when posting every now and then, the doomed screen of un-twitterance is being displayed and I kinda feel sorry for the hardcore twitterers.

Another thing is that I keep the feeling that the possibilities of Twitter are still limited, while the idea are out there… with its users and developers.

So, what do think? Vote for or against this statement.

[idea] WordPress plugin Favorites

Bundle your favorite WordPress plugins on WordPress.org and download them all in 1 zip package… that would be something I could really appreciate!

Always being busy with different websites, I notice that my management of plugins is not a very efficient one. Most important reason for this: I do not use 1 place to store them. As it appeared to me, this is a problem that more people encounter, especially webmasters and webpublishers that work on multiple blogs.

The idea of WP-plugin favorites is something to work out, so I think I will kick off with a few suggestions for this:

Emotion in a steel package: Wall-e

I am a sucker for cartoons, animations and comics… With Wall-e, Disney has created yet another amazing animation. The different trailers and vignettes are already grrreat… looking forward to the movie!

Help Firefox set a World Record

Download Day - English

Set a Guinness World Record - Enjoy a Better Web

Sounds like a good deal, right? All you have to do is get Firefox 3 during Download Day to help set the record for most software downloads in 24 hours - it’s that easy. We’re not asking you to swallow a sword or to balance 30 spoons on your face, although that would be kind of awesome.

The official date for the launch of Firefox 3 is June 17, 2008.

IMHO, if there is one application that has enabled enhancing my online workflow and productivity, it sure is Firefox.

I pledged to download Firefox 3 on the day of its release, will you?

Insight in the next WordPress release [WP 2.6]

Lack of time and digital laziness moved me to put my remaining WordPress powered blogs to the bleeding edge… I update them with a simple and short command in terminal: “svn up”
This does put me in a position where I face bugs every now and then, but that does not really bother me (yet).

Working this way and upgrading on a regular basis gives you some great insight (actually, you see the changes as they catch your eye by surprise) in the current development of WordPress.

I see some great and substantial changes coming for WP 2.6, as I cover right here:
