Blogger vs pLog
School still trying to figure out which blog is best to be deployed for use by staff, so I did a simple comparison.
WordPress 1.5 Themes winners
Looks like the winners of the WordPress 1.5 theme competition have been announced! Wow, a total of 140 entries! Should provide lots of ideas for my next blog re-design.
el Camino
The web browser I mean. Looks like they have a spiffy looking new website to go along with a long-awaited new-release of the web browser. Like Mozilla Firefox, it is based on the latest Gecko rendering engine, but it sure feels more Mac-like. I also like the bookmark management system quite a bit better than Firefox’s.

Blogger to WordPress
It’s been some 3 months now since I moved from my Blogger blog to this WordPress one.. gosh, time sure passes really quickly! Before I know it, it’ll already be the Novemember holidays again! Haha.. Anyhow, one of things I never got around to doing was to document why exactly I went to WordPress, and (probably) more importantly how exactly I went about doing it. And I never could seem to get around to doing it. 🙁 Luckily, this blogger…
