They even give away 2 GB space for you to store your photos..

Wishing the best for WPDesigner

| Filed under: Wordpress — admin @ 1:30 pm

I’ve loved WPDesigner since the very beginning.

And like many others, I was really sad to hear that Small Potato is selling the site.

You can easily see how much love and work he put in his site…

WPDesigner is indeed, now no.1 blog about Wordpress according to WPThemesGallery (Last update: January 07, 2007). Even Matt Mullenweg the creator of Wordpress is number 3…

So today I checked the site auction at SitePoint Marketplace.

Found out that the auction has received a “Buy It Now” offer, at the price of $65,000, on 14 Mar 2008 01:52.

By the time this article is written, Small Potato has not yet accepted or rejected this offer.

I don’t know who is the buyer, and how all of this will go,

but one thing is for sure:

I’m wishing the best for WPDesigner.com,

and Small Potato, the father, too.

We will miss you, so hope to see you around still, SP :)

This result will be updated.

 

Check how your website looks in IE 7, 6 or 5.5!

| Filed under: Site — admin @ 8:35 am

To ensure cross-browser compatibility is a must for any web developer / web designer.

But what if you don’t have every single version of every single browser available in this world wide universe?

No worries!

At least when it comes to Internet Explorer, you know IE NetRenderer will be there to save you ;)

IE NetRenderer allows you to check how a website is rendered by Internet Explorer 7, 6 or 5.5, as seen from a high speed datacenter located in Germany.

I have to admit that it’s really the fastest rendering service that I could find :)

March 12, 2008 | Filed under: Google, Internet — admin @ 2:07 am

Yesterday, Google Inc. announced that it has completed its acquisition of DoubleClick, a company that offers online ad serving and management technology to advertisers, web publishers and ad agencies.

Eric Schmidt, Google’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are thrilled that our acquisition of DoubleClick has closed. With DoubleClick, Google now has the leading display ad platform, which will enable us to rapidly bring to market advances in technology and infrastructure that will dramatically improve the effectiveness, measurability and performance of digital media for publishers, advertisers and agencies, while improving the relevance of advertising for users.”

Some concerns raised in regard to the performance of digital media and the relevance of internet advertising… Reminds me of Gmail and the ads…

Well… it’s getting scarier eh, how your personal information is exchanged by invisible hands in invisible medium?

But maybe it’s the price we have to pay for those technologies they’re spoiling us.

And I might be guilty too :D

 

Shylock Adsense Wordpress Plugin

March 11, 2008 | Filed under: Google Adsense, Script, Wordpress — admin @ 6:40 pm

Shylock Adsense is a WordPress plugin that allows you to insert Adsense ads on your blog without modifying the template. More then that, you can set it up to show different Adsense ads for articles older then X days (x is the number of days you decide).

For example, you can insert a 468×60 ad at the bottom of a new article, and once that article turns 7 days old it will have a 336×280 ad blended with the text from the beginning of that article.

Get Shylock Adsense Plugin here.
