As you’ve probably noticed by the different look to Anyway, I’ve upgraded to version 1.5 of WordPress. It will take a little while before I have everything implemented the way I want it; in the meantime please let me know if anything is broken!
Updating to WordPress 1.2 at the moment; the site may not look so pretty until I get my style sheets sorted out and the tweaks put back.
Update: I now have most of the tweaks in place and the site should work much the same as it did before. I’ll introduce some of the new features over the next little while, so expect some changes on the site.
What WordPress Does Right
There’s been a flurry of interest in WordPress ever since it was announced that MovableType will be moving to a fee-based model. There already was a substantial amount of interest in WordPress. That’s because the people running it (mostly, from what I can see, Matt Mullenweg, and there’s a longer list at About WordPress) did quite a few things right. So here’s Lauren’s Product Management 101, using WordPress as the example.
Adding Accessibility
I’m up to Day 26 of Mark Pilgrim’s excellent series on accessibility. Fortunately, the WordPress templates are mostly compliant out of the box so I had very little to change.
