WordPress 2.7 looks freaking sweet!

20081017

It’s been about a month since I’ve joined Adii (http://adii.co.za) at his new design firm {radiiate} (http://radiiate.com) and I have been stuck in with plenty of WordPress work. And it’s been lovely. I have great fun using the platform full time and am really starting to get to know the ins and outs of the lion that wades beneath the surface.

This renewed energy for WordPress has only been strengthened by the announcement of the great looking WordPress version 2.7. They team have been busy and i think we’ll be able to start using that sparkling and intuitive in backed in no time. Just to prove my point I’ve added some images for you to have a sneak peak at the yet to be finished designs. Well done guys.

I think the interface looks really great and will be very very functional. Kudos points to the WP team.

You can get the latest version from SVN and start playing with it already http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/trunk/ It just may contain a few bugs…

I’ve been using the new version since I read this post, and I’m loving it on several instances. I’m not sure if I’m the only one, but I seem to get an error saying “Missed Schedule” for posts that I’ve scheduled for the future. Anyone else?

State of the Internet 2009

I loved Amsterdam. I can do nothing but rave about how great it is. I most likely should be complaining about how expensive or how cold the weather was, but all I want to do is revisit this wonderful city with it’s whirling bikes and cobbled alley ways. One thing I really loved about Amsterdam was [...] read more

Torchlight, Diablo 3 killer?

I’m making a ridiculous statement right out the gates and oddly so because Diablo 3 has not even been released yet. Why say it’s a killer? That’s because Torchlight is exactly what you’d expect the next Diablo to be like. From the start Torchlight submerges you in a neat new world, instantly throwing you into the [...] read more

Rome, Florence, Rome

Booked in the spur of the moment, we were on our way to a four nights stay in Italy. Two nights in Rome and two nights in Florence separated by a four hour train journey. Italy is an incredibly beautiful part of the world with amazing culture, breathtaking monuments and ridiculous traffic. For the backpacking traveler, [...] read more

A night in Betties Bay

Nils and Christi, my “doctor friends”, invited me along for a night with the old gang for a braai, two nights before I had to leave for Ireland. The next morning we went for a dive to take out crayfish. Sadly I don’t have any photos of myself in the Neoprene cladding. Please invite me again, [...] read more

The Killers, Cape Town, 2009

As promised, I will be sharing some of the love The Killers showed the attendees of yesterdays concert. Any chance we as Cape Townians get to go to a big concert, we leap at the opportunity. This was the case with The Killers live in concert, churning out about 20 000, individuals ready for big sound [...] read more

Version 4

An emotional moment comes as I finally polish up this LONG overdue theme for my site. Many things can attribute to this theme taking well over 6 month to complete. Among those are the love/hate relationship I have with design, the lack of focus and the need to get everything perfect. My site is not perfect. [...] read more

District 9 out of 9

This past week I went to go see District 9 again. The make of any good movie is one that you can watch twice in quick succession only to appreciate it even more. The subtle South African flavor coupled with a unique story, told in an uncanny documentary style fashion made for an enjoyable second [...] read more

Firefox 3.5 fixed my Gmail!

Before today my Gmail at work was CRAP! Heck knows why. It was slow, unresponsive, struggling to log in, took for ever so send email, annoying and unusable. Until I upgraded to the new Firefox 3.5 today. Joy rains unon thee! Gmail lives and it seems like there was an upgrade on the Google side of [...] read more
