And another week has already gone by. I can’t even keep tracking of them anymore. Is it 1989 or 2010? ;-)
This week I have Facebook, twitter, WordPress, Earth Day and more.
Enjoy!
(Anti) Social Lists 4/11/10
Happy Spring! We had three unseasonably warm days this week and it was a little hard to focus – it even got up to 90F!
This week I have WordPress, freelancing, adsense, backing up, Muppets, and more.
Enjoy!
WordPress Optimization Tips – Slideshow
Recently Joost de Valk of Yoast (one of my WordPress heroes) gave a talk about WordPress optimization. He was kind enough to share the slides from his presentation and provide the embed code.
What do you think? Does this presentation cover everything or is there something vital missing? I think it is extremely comprehensive and is a solid guide to setting up and maintaining and optimized web site.
10 More Interesting and Useful WordPress Plugins: Comments, Posts and Databases
It’s been a while since I’ve highlighted any interesting plugins that I’ve come across so since I now have 10, I thought it would be a good time to posts a new list.
I can not vouch for these as I am not using any of them and I tend to prefer a non-plugin solution, if at all possible.
But people are writing so many unique and useful plugins that they really are worth giving a mention.
3 Sites to Help You Find New Recipes
I am not a domestic person. I don’t enjoy sewing, decorating, cleaning, organizing, gardening, etc. if you’re a regular reader of this site, I’m sure that doesn’t come as a surprise to you.
I do, however, enjoy cooking. I didn’t used to. But going on 10 years ago I became a vegan (I am a vegetarian now or lapsed vegan) and figured I was either going to starve or live on popcorn (without butter) if I didn’t learn how to cook.
I got some cookbooks and magazines, searched for recipes online and learned how to cook. I started with a couple of recipes, which I now know by heart, and slowly increased the recipes I knew.
I am frequently looking for new “keeper” recipes – recipes that I will make over and over again – and the available online now and so much more extensive and are much prettier than they were 10 years ago.(I guess that’s the 2 in Web 2 point oh).
So, here are three sites to help you locate new recipes. One is my favorite, one is handy and the other is fun.
