No, I haven’t been nursing a single cup of coffee for two days. It’s Sunday morning and yesterday was just too nice and too “filled” to post anything. Today [...]

Let’s try this again. I got up early, as usual. Read around the blogosphere and got ready to do my premier test broadcast on BlogTalkRadio. I signed in, waited for the time to count down, and started talking. I talked for 30 minutes. I am going to claim that it went unbelievably well. I can [...]

Few, if any, of you know that my first post-college career was in broadcasting. Not talk radio to be sure, but I was a broadcast major and worked at several stations in the first few years after college. Inspired by Captain Ed, I’m going to give Blog Talk Radio a shot.

I’m way behind. I thought I was caught up, but…not so much.
I did finish the plugin I’ve been working on for bbPress. And it works! You can see it in action in the Forum.
Speaking of forums, if you’re a fan of 24 (and who isn’t), you need to check out Forums4Bauer. The number of registered [...]

Weekends are great times for playing around with your site. This morning (and late last night) I’ve been tinkering with the bRight & Early Forum. What? You didn’t know there was a bRight & Early Forum? Well there’s a big button in the right sidebar.
I’d love for you to take a look and let me [...]

I’ve spent a good part of this morning making some changes here. Mostly with the plugins (one of the things I really like about WordPress) and the layout. What’s New:
Formating Tag Buttons for comments. Works on the individual page, but not in the comment popup box. I don’t know what the problem is.
Live Comment Preview. [...]

I was just about to shut things down and I noticed that my blog was sitting atop of the the Blogs for Bush blogroll. Fingers crossed that everything is working again. Even after all the work I did today to work around the outage.
Sunday Morning Update: I’m simply updating this post to determine if it [...]

Blogrolling.com is still not showing recently updated blogs correctly. That doesn’t help with the blogrolls where I’m a member such as Blogs for Bush or The 101st Fighting Keyboardists, but I have found a nice WordPress plugin for my own bRight & Early blogroll. It’s called Blogroll Update Plus, by Bill Hilton.
It allows you to [...]

It’s been an evening for doing some upgrading. WordPress 2.0.5 has been released (and installed) and I have upgraded to Firefox 2.0
Now let’s see if everything works.
