David Polk whose firm was commissioned to complete the study mentions problems with IT etiquette and goes on to say:</p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Some of these problems in the workplace are the same things we are seeing in the classroom,&#8221; &#8230; &#8220;Students and employees alike are text messaging, surfing the Internet, and responding to cell phone calls at inappropriate times. It appears that for many the need to be in constant contact with friends and family has become an addiction. The addicted no longer see it as rude to be obsessively responding to calls or text messages.&#8221;</p></blockquote>\n<p>The real problem is that organizations and universities have failed to properly utilize these new communication tools that we appear &#8220;addicted&#8221; to. Companies should instead put together social media policies to regulate and facilitate the proper usage of these tools. The internet and these new technologies create new possibilities for marketing, sales, HR, collaboration and social awareness that should not be overlooked.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDZFcDGpL4U\"><img class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-7419\" title=\"RSA Animate - Changing Education Paradigm\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/animate-sir-ken-robinson1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"211\" height=\"135\" /></a>When it comes to our education system, <a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ken_Robinson_(British_author)\">Sir Ken Robinson</a> says it best &#8220;.. It&#8217;s like we&#8217;re all being trained to be university professors&#8221;. Students are force fed the same curriculum with little favor towards true personal growth. Kids are clumped into groups based on age and location with little attention to their passions and talents. We need to shift from the old &#8220;assembly line&#8221; mindset to a more passion driven model.</p>\n<p>First we need to see a change in the education system where individuals learn how to better use these tools to innovate and cooperate. Then we need to see organizations change their mindset and advise employees on best practices when it comes to internet usage.</p>\n<p>Yes, my generation does feel entitled because we have access to more information than the generation before us. Hopefully the next generation will have access to even more information and will in turn teach mine. But the fact remains that we might just know things &#8220;seasoned workers&#8221; fail to see because everything is moving so fast. Hopefully we can all catch up and move forward as the human race instead of individual generations of that race.</p>\n<h3>Conclusion</h3>\n<p>Times are changing and so should the workplace and our education system. We need more access to technology inside and outside of the classrooms for educational purposes. Learning should be fueled by curiosity and allowed to mutate and wander with the mind. The workplace should also reflect these same ideals.</p>\n<h3>Additional Resources For Teachers:</h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a

are thousands of plugins in the WordPress Plugin directory. These are 13 plugins I seem to revisit the most often and recommend to clients and friends.<span id=\"more-7447\"></span> This list differs from <a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/2009/07/13-wordpress-plugins-you-need-to-know-exist/\">the one I wrote a little over a year ago</a> because a) it has pictures, and b) a lot has happened since last year.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/gravity-forms\">Gravity Forms</a></h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/gravity-forms\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7455\" title=\"gravity\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/gravity.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" /></a><br />\nGravity forms makes it incredibly easy to create web forms for your site. Some things I liked about it were the conditional form fields and the ability to monitor and export data. If you can&#8217;t shell out the money for Gravity Forms, <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/contact-form-7/\">Contact Forms 7</a> is still a suitable alternative.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/google-analytics-for-wordpress/\">Google Analytics for WordPress</a></h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/google-analytics-for-wordpress\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7457\" title=\"ga\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/ga.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" /></a>As far as Google Analytics plugins go, this one is the best. Not only does it assist in adding the Google Analytics tracking code but it can also track outbound links and insert itself in the header or footer.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-seo/\">WordPress SEO</a></h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-seo/\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7458\" title=\"seo\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/seo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" /></a>WordPress SEO is the most complete search engine optimization plugin you will find. Not only does it assist with titles and meta information but it can create XML sitemaps, breadcrumbs and much more.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/open-graph-protocol-tools/\">Open Graph Protocol Tools</a></h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/open-graph-protocol-tools/\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7460\" title=\"open-graph\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/open-graph.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" /></a>This plugin adds meta information to your WordPress header to enable your web page to become a rich object in a social graph. The Open Graph Protocal is used on Facebook to enable any web page to have the same functionality as a Facebook Page. If you&#8217;re having problems with Facebook or Digg using the wrong image when you try and submit your posts this plugin might help.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/socialize/\">Socialize</a></h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/socialize\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7462\" title=\"socialize\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/socialize.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" /></a>I have a few plugins in the WordPress plugin repository but this is the only one I think people really need to know about. It allows you to selectively display the most popular social bookmarking buttons on your website. It also provides a call to action area at the bottom that you can edit for specific posts to request further action from your readers.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/w3-total-cache/\">W3 Total Cache</a></h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/w3-total-cache/\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7463\" title=\"wp-total-cache\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/wp-total-cache.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" /></a>W3 Total Cache is the fastest caching plugin for WordPress and is used by a lot of popular websites.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wptouch/\">WPtouch</a></h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wptouch/\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7465\" title=\"wptouchj\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/wptouchj.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" /></a>WPtouch is the most popular plugin for making your website mobile ready. The plugin detects mobile browsers and styles your site accordingly.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/secure-wordpress/\">Secure WordPress</a></h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/secure-wordpress/\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7466\" title=\"secure-wordpress\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/secure-wordpress.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" /></a>Secure WordPress allows you to selectively turn off WordPress functionality that poses a threat to your site.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/yet-another-related-posts-plugin/\">Yet Another Related Posts Plugin</a></h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/yet-another-related-posts-plugin/\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7468\" title=\"yarpp\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/yarpp.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" /></a></p>\n<p>A great way to keep people on your blog is to recommend similar blog posts when they have finished reading the current one. The plugin has a bunch of settings making it easy to customize for your blog.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-db-backup/\">WP-DB-Backup</a></h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-db-backup/\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7469\" title=\"backup\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/backup.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" /></a></p>\n<p>This one is straight and to the point. Back up your wordpress site so if something goes wrong you don’t kill yourself.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/subscribe-to-comments/\">Subscribe to Comments</a></h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/subscribe-to-comments/\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7470\" title=\"subscribe\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/subscribe.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" /></a></p>\n<p>This plugin goes on my list of essentials. It’s the easiest way to get repeat visits from your commenters. It basically allows commenters to subscribe to all future comments on a post.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/stats/\">WordPress Blog Stats</a></h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/stats/\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7471\" title=\"stats\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/stats.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" /></a></p>\n<p>I use this in conjunction with Google Analytics for two reasons.</p>\n<ol>\n<li>I like having stats integrated into my dashboard.</li>\n<li>I like being able to use that data with other plugins.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>It’s not like the data is collected any faster than Google Analytics as both have a decent delay however it’s nice to see what another service has to say about my websites traffic.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/akismet/\">Akismet</a></h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/akismet/\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7472\" title=\"akismet\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/akismet.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" /></a></p>\n<p>This one’s simple, it marks spam as spam for you so you don’t have to.</p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?a=pSGc3AOWaOM:wWd1xsTpNHI:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img

bloggers stick to paragraphs and an image or two when writing new posts. This is fine for some however you may want to broaden your horizons and learn more about the potential WordPress and its HTML counterparts have to offer.<span id=\"more-5644\"></span></p>\n<p>The purpose of this post is to educate my clients and readers on some of the best practices concerning HTML in their WordPress posts and pages. Sure you can just write blocks of text and hope the content is compelling enough to stick but knowing a little HTML can go a long way in making your posts easier to read.</p>\n<h2>Learn Basic HTML</h2>\n<h3>Paragraphs and Line Breaks:</h3>\n<p>The WordPress editor automatically removes <code>&lt;br&gt;</code> and <code>&lt;p&gt;</code> tags that don&#8217;t have any attributes and  replaces them when your WordPress theme displays your content. This causes a lot of confusion when people who already know some HTML start trying to use the WordPress HTML editor and their paragraph tags keep disappearing. WordPress interprets a single line break as <code>&lt;br&gt;</code> and a double line break as <code>&lt;p&gt;</code>.</p>\n<h3>Headers:</h3>\n<p>Headers are a great way to tell your readers (and search engines) what the next block of text is about. Us humans have become accustomed to scanning posts rather than reading every little word. For this reason headers are a great way to help a reader find exactly what they&#8217;re looking for within your post.</p>\n<blockquote><p><code>&lt;h1&gt;Most Important Header&lt;/h1&gt;<br />\n&lt;h2&gt;Second Most Important Header&lt;/h2&gt;<br />\n&lt;h3&gt;Third Most Important Header&lt;/h3&gt;<br />\n...<br />\n&lt;h6&gt;Least Important Header&lt;/h6&gt;</code></p></blockquote>\n<p>I usually try to pick up where my theme left off. So if my post title is using <code>&lt;h2&gt;</code> tags I will use <code>&lt;h3&gt;</code> tags to punctuate my main points in my post.</p>\n<h3>Images:</h3>\n<p>I personally think images are the most important part of a post next to its content. You are best off using the <a title=\"Using Image and File Attachments\" href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Image_and_File_Attachments\">Upload/Insert functionality</a> in your post editor. If your theme supports <a title=\"Post Thumbnails\" href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Thumbnails\">featured images</a> you should most definitely be using them.</p>\n<p>One of my WordPress image pet peeves is when people don&#8217;t use the <a title=\"Styling Images in WordPress\" href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Images#Styling_Images_in_WordPress\">built in CSS classes</a> to align their images to the content.  These are classes that the WordPress post editor uses by default and most quality themes will support.</p>\n<p>A basic left aligned image in WordPress would look like:</p>\n<blockquote><p><code>&lt;img src=\"example.jpg\" class=\"alignleft\" /&gt;</code></p></blockquote>\n<p>And there you have it. I&#8217;ll talk about the importance of additional tags like Alt and Title in a bit. For now let&#8217;s move on.</p>\n<h3>Lists:</h3>\n<p>Lists are a very important part of making your post scannable. I try and use them whenever I want to highlight key points because I know the reader is more likely to read them. There are two types of lists; ordered and unordered.</p>\n<p>Ordered lists are exactly what they sound like:</p>\n<ol>\n<li>First</li>\n<li>Second</li>\n<li>Third</li>\n</ol>\n<p>And alternatively, an unordered list looks as follows:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Something</li>\n<li>Something Else</li>\n<li>And More</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Your sidebar and navigation menus are most likely already making use of lists because of their ability to efficiently organize information. The basic syntax of a list is pretty straightforward.</p>\n<p>First you need to declare what type of list you are using</p>\n<ul>\n<li>&lt;ol&gt; &#8211; Ordered List</li>\n<li>&lt;ul&gt; &#8211; Unordered List</li>\n</ul>\n<p>And then you need to wrap your list items with the &lt;li&gt; tag.</p>\n<p>A completed unordered list could look like this:</p>\n<blockquote><p><code>&lt;ul&gt;<br />\n&lt;li&gt;Something&lt;/li&gt;<br />\n&lt;li&gt;Something Else&lt;/li&gt;<br />\n&lt;li&gt;And More&lt;/li&gt;<br />\n&lt;/ul&gt;</code></p></blockquote>\n<h3>Formatting:</h3>\n<p>You&#8217;ve got your main points highlighted with headers, lists and images to draw your readers eye. Now you can run though your post and do any additional needed styling to accentuate any remaining key ideas.</p>\n<blockquote><p><code>&lt;strong&gt;</code> &#8211; Makes your content bold. Use instead of <code>&lt;b&gt;</code> to help search engines give extra weight.<br />\n<code>&lt;em&gt;</code> &#8211; Makes your content italic. Use instead of <code>&lt;i&gt;</code> to help search engines give extra weight.<br />\n<code>&lt;a href=\"\"&gt;</code> &#8211; The anchor tag can be used to link to other websites or within your site. The href attribute specifies the destination of a link.<br />\n<code>&lt;blockquote&gt;</code> &#8211; Most themes will indent and emphasize blockquote text so this is a great way to emphasize chunks of text and quotes.<br />\n<code>&lt;pre&gt;</code> &#8211; By default, this tag maintains a text format. Good for bits of text where you want to preserve line breaks and spaces.<br />\n<code>&lt;code&gt;</code> &#8211; This tag distinguishes text that is computer code from normal language<br />\n<code>&lt;del&gt;</code> &#8211;  This tag is useful for chunks of text you want to delete after a post has been published. Most browsers will render it as the original text with a line through it.<br />\n<code>&lt;ins&gt;</code> &#8211;  This tag is useful for chunks of text you may want to add to your post after it has been published. Most browsers will render it as the original text with a line under it.</p></blockquote>\n<h2>Accessibility</h2>\n<p><q cite=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_accessibility\">Web accessibility refers to the practice of making websites usable by people of all abilities and disabilities</q> via <a title=\"Web accessibility\" href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_accessibility\">Wikipedia</a>. WordPress recommends that you use Alt and Title tags on images as well as Title tags on links.</p>\n<p>Example:</p>\n<blockquote><p><code>&lt;a href=\"example.html\" title=\"Example\"&gt;&lt;img src=\"example.jpg\" alt=\"Example\" title=\"Example\" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</code></p></blockquote>\n<h2>Using The HTML Editor (Video)</h2>\n<p><object width=\"602\" height=\"505\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http://www.youtube.com/v/HgqzbmQuZck&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?color1=0x2b405b&amp;color2=0x6b8ab6\"></param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"></param><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\"></param><embed src=\"http://www.youtube.com/v/HgqzbmQuZck&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?color1=0x2b405b&amp;color2=0x6b8ab6\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"602\" height=\"505\"></embed></object></p>\n<h2>Conclusion</h2>\n<p>This is only a small sampling of the HTML tags you can use based on the ones I thought were most important. All of these HTML tags are either built into the WordPress editor or supported by popular WordPress themes. Of course focus more on the quality of your posts than using as many HTML tags as possible. Look at some of your favorite blogs to get an idea of how you might want to structure your posts. With a better understanding of whats possible you can create a more personal style.</p>\n<h2>Further Reading</h2>\n<p>Here are some sites and posts worth checking out to learn more about HTML and

has been a long time since I last updated <a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/downloads/wordpress-plugins/socialize/\">the socialize plugin</a>. I made small updates here and there to fix some of the more common problems people were having but I never got around to making all the enhancements that had been requested. Well here it is, I&#8217;ve addressed every issue presented to me in the <a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/downloads/wordpress-plugins/socialize/#comments\">comments of the plugin page</a>.<span id=\"more-2206\"></span> I am very excited about this update as it basically brings the plugin back to stage 1 and I can build up from here. I also thought it was suitable considering the release of WordPress 3.0 to get these changes out the door so we can innovate on this new and improved platform.</p>\n<p>How much different is this version than the last? Well here is a complete list of the latest changes:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Commented out javascript</li>\n<li>Added security to page meta box</li>\n<li>Added Yahoo Buzz and Google Buzz buttons</li>\n<li>Removed custom Facebook button and replaced with official Facebook Share button</li>\n<li>Created Delicious button with save count</li>\n<li>Provided options to float in-content buttons to right or left</li>\n<li>Provided options to display buttons on different pages</li>\n<li>Added option to hide alert box on specific pages</li>\n<li>Fixed CSS</li>\n<li>Plugin now updates upon activation and keeps record of version</li>\n<li>Buttons can now be displayed in feeds</li>\n</ul>\n<h3>Highlights</h3>\n<p><strong>New Buttons</strong></p>\n<p><img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2207\" title=\"delicious\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/delicious.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"50\" height=\"60\" /></p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve added Yahoo Buzz and Google Buzz due to popular demand. I also went ahead and changed the old Facebook image I was using and replaced it with the official Facebook Share Button.</p>\n<p>My favorite addition is the new delicious button. It was the only button without an official or nice looking share button with a save count. So I made my own, hope you like it.</p>\n<p><strong>New Position Settings</strong></p>\n<p>You can control whether buttons are displayed on posts, pages, archives, search pages and even your feed. You can also control if the buttons are displayed on the left or right side of the content.</p>\n<p><strong>Fixed JavaScript and CSS Problems</strong></p>\n<p>I took care or several problems where JavaScript was being displayed on pages and buttons weren&#8217;t positioning correctly.</p>\n<h3>What Is Socialize?</h3>\n<p>The idea was to create an easy to use plugin that allowed bloggers to selectively add social bookmarks to their post. Furthermore I wanted to only use actionable buttons with counters because I believe displaying a posts social activity gives it positive social proof and can lead to more shares and more views.</p>\n<p>This plugin also includes what I like to call an &#8216;alert box&#8217; that is selectively displayed below posts and pages to encourage comments and sharing. You can also insert buttons into this post to increase the sharing potential.</p>\n<p>The plugin is designed to make it easy for readers to share your content and give you full control of what is displayed where.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/socialize.1.2.3.zip\">Download Socialize</a></h3>\n<p>So go check out <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/socialize/\">the plugin page</a> and try it out.</p>\n<p>Remember if you are upgrading, be sure to deactivate the plugin first and reactivate it once you have uploaded the files.</p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?a=w1Mo01Bu92c:0J01njNW5L4:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img

people have started communities on the popular network creation site <a href=\"http://www.ning.com\">Ning</a> since its inception. On April 15th they announced they would <a href=\"http://blog.ning.com/2010/04/an-update-from-ning.html\">no longer offer their free services</a>.<span id=\"more-2104\"></span> Realize this isn&#8217;t the end of Ning as they point out</p>\n<blockquote><p>The tens of thousands of you who already use our paid service represent over 75% of our traffic</p></blockquote>\n<p>So I imagine most of the popular networks you belong to on Ning will remain in place.</p>\n<p>However, for the other 25% that might navigate elsewhere you have several options. I&#8217;ve yet to see a good breakdown of some of the better free Ning alternatives out there so I thought I would give it a shot. I found most of these sites in the comments and blog posts of other despaired Ning network creators. I&#8217;ve also tried to track down these other networks reactions to Ning&#8217;s announcement. Hopefully this will help you with your own transition.</p>\n<h2>Hosted Solutions</h2>\n<h3>Spruz</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.spruz.com/\"><img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2112\" title=\"spruz\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/spruz.png\" alt=\"Create a free socially enabled website! Many powerful features including Blog, Forum, Videos, Member Management, Shopping Cart &amp; more! Fully data driven free websites.\" width=\"255\" height=\"100\" /></a></p>\n<p>Spruz seems to be the network of choice for most ex-ningers. I&#8217;ve read several reports of great up time and quality service. Spruz seems to have everything Ning has and a few extras that make it somewhat unique. I&#8217;ve seen users specifically boast about its file sharing capabilities.</p>\n<p>[<a href=\"http://my.spruz.com/pt/Spruz-welcomes-Ning-Refuges/blog.htm\">Post from Spruz welcoming Ning users</a>]</p>\n<h3>Webs</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.webs.com\"><img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2117\" title=\"webs\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/webs.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"100\" /></a>Webs gets 30 times the traffic of Spruz and any other network on this list falling short only to Ning at two-thirds its traffic. Webs promises to always be free and shares several of the main features that made Ning popular including forums, member profiles and blogs.</p>\n<p>[<a href=\"http://blog.webs.com/2010/04/16/webs-welcomes-ning-users-with-open-arms-and-free-accounts-migrate-your-ning-network-to-webs-com-for-absolutely-free/\">Post from Webs welcoming Ning users</a>]</p>\n<h3>WackWall</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://wackwall.com/\"><img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2119\" title=\"WackWall\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/WackWall.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"100\" /></a>I guess being in beta it wouldn&#8217;t be fair to compare their traffic to some of the other sites on the list. However, WackWall looks very promising. They are backed by a software company and don&#8217;t rely on investments which is why, they say, they will always remain free.</p>\n<p>[<a href=\"http://blog.wackwall.com/2010/04/ning-throws-out-free-users-who-could-have-thought.html\">Post from WackWall welcoming Ning users</a>]</p>\n<h3>Grou.ps</h3>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http://grou.ps/\"><img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2121\" title=\"groups\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/groups.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"100\" /></a></strong>Grou.ps is another great choice based on open source software. It seems to have everything Ning has and a very reasonable pricing plan to help scale your network. They also prefer to be called a social operating system. Looks very powerful.</p>\n<p>[<a href=\"http://grou.ps/ning.php\">Post from Grou.ps welcoming Ning users</a>]</p>\n<h3>Grouply</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.grouply.com/\"><img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2123\" title=\"grouply\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/grouply.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"100\" /></a></p>\n<p>Grouply looks a lot like Ning on the front end and already has FAQs on importing members from other services. Matter of fact I&#8217;ve mistaken grouply groups for Ning groups a few times. One does have to wonder why their traffic has been dropping only to be revived by Ning&#8217;s latest news.</p>\n<p>[<a href=\"http://blog.grouply.com/grouply-welcomes-ning-networks/\">Post from grouply welcoming Ning users</a>]</p>\n<h3>BigTent</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.bigtent.com/\"><img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2125\" title=\"bigtent\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/bigtent.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"100\" /></a></p>\n<p>BigTent may be one of the babies of the bunch but it provides all of the same services in an &#8220;integrated&#8221; approach. Users claim the support is tremendous making it worth their switch. BigTent looks like a very simple solution, maybe a little too simple for some.</p>\n<p>[<a href=\"http://blog.bigtent.com/2010/04/16/looking-for-ning-alternatives-learn-about-bigtent-in-an-upcoming-webinar/\">Post from BigTent welcoming Ning users</a>]</p>\n<h3>Zerista</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.zerista.com/\"><img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2127\" title=\"zerista\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/zerista.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"100\" /></a>Still trying to wrap my brain around this one but it looks VERY cool. Imagine FourSquare meets Ning and has little mobile babies. With tons of cool features to integrate the social experience, maybe its about time you take your network to the next level and go mobile?</p>\n<p>[<a href=\"http://blog.zerista.com/2010/04/17/5-reasons-to-move-your-ning-network-to-zerista/\">Post from Zerista welcoming Ning users</a>]</p>\n<h3>Groupsite</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.groupsite.com\"><img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2129\" title=\"groupsite\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/groupsite.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"100\" /></a>Groupsite (formerly known as CollectiveX) looks like an awesome network solution with some excellent features. It does seem like they find ways to lure you into buying their premium services, like limiting subgroups to 5 but overall another good solution on the free side.</p>\n<h3>SocialGo</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.socialgo.com/\"><img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2130\" title=\"socialgo\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/socialgo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"100\" /></a>SocialGo, like the rest has a very impressive feature list and is just as popular as Spruz traffic-wise. The site seems to have a pretty satisfied user-base as I&#8217;ve seen several people recommend the site across different blogs and networks. Definitely worth putting on the list.</p>\n<h2>Open Source Solutions</h2>\n<p>Maybe the phasing out of Ning&#8217;s free service is what it takes to get you to take ownership of your community and move to a self hosted solution. The following are all free and trusted solutions in the industry. I personally would go with BuddyPress but to each his own.</p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http://buddypress.org/\">BuddyPress</a><span style=\"font-weight: normal;\"> &#8211; [<a href=\"http://buddypress.org/blog/community/helpful-resources-for-ning-users/\">Message from Buddypress</a>]</span></strong></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://elgg.org/\"><strong>Elgg</strong></a><strong> </strong>- [<a href=\"http://elggnews.com/pg/blog/brett/read/133/how-hosted-elgg-helps-us-all\">Message from Elgg</a>]</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.pligg.com/\"><strong>Pligg</strong></a></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.boonex.com/dolphin/\"><strong>Dolphin</strong></a></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://lovdbyless.com/\"><strong>LovdByLess</strong></a></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://github.com/insoshi/insoshi\"><strong>Insoshi</strong></a></p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http://sourceforge.net/projects/astrospaces/\">Astrospaces</a></strong></p>\n<h2>Conclusion</h2>\n<p>I wan&#8217;t to hear your thoughts. If you know of any other free hosted social network creation services, please share them in the comments. Also feel free to give feedback on any of the networks listed if you are currently a user or have used one in the past.</p>\n<p>- Photo by <a title=\"Link to Samuel Stroube\'s photostream\"

Whether you are starting from scratch or moving your existing website to WordPress as a CMS, this guide will help you get the conversion done.<span id=\"more-1837\"></span></p>\n<p>Keep in mind that these are the basics and this is not a guide on how to <a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Designing_Themes_for_Public_Release\">develop themes for public release</a>.</p>\n<h2>What You Will Need</h2>\n<ul>\n<li>An XHTML web template</li>\n<li>A WordPress install</li>\n<li>A text editor (Like <a href=\"http://www.adobe.com/products/dreamweaver/\">Dreamweaver</a> or <a href=\"http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm\">Notepad++</a>)</li>\n<li>An FTP client (Like <a href=\"http://filezilla-project.org/\">Filezilla</a>)</li>\n</ul>\n<h2>Getting Started</h2>\n<p>First, let&#8217;s set up our theme files.</p>\n<h3>Prepare your files</h3>\n<p>For this tutorial we are going to use the minimum number of theme files needed to create a functional WordPress theme. Your existing template files should include the following:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>An HTML Template File</li>\n<li>A CSS Stylesheet</li>\n<li>An images folder</li>\n</ul>\n<p>You should rename your HTML Template File to &#8216;index.php&#8217; and your CSS Stylesheet to &#8216;style.css&#8217;. This is important and is how WordPress knows which files are which.</p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1862\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"width: 430px\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-1862\" title=\"This is an example of what your theme folder should look like\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/wordpress-html3.jpg\" alt=\"This is an example of what your theme folder should look like\" width=\"420\" height=\"109\" /><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">This is an example of what your theme folder should look like</p></div>\n<h3>Add WordPress Theme Info (<a href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bihANQeHZwY\">video</a>)</h3>\n<p>This is where your WordPress Theme gets your theme name, description, author link, etc. All you need to do is create a commented out area at the top of your stylesheet as follows:</p>\n<blockquote><p>/*<br />\nTheme Name: Rose<br />\nTheme URI: the-theme&#8217;s-homepage<br />\nDescription: a-brief-description<br />\nAuthor: your-name<br />\nAuthor URI: your-URI<br />\nTemplate: use-this-to-define-a-parent-theme&#8211;optional<br />\nVersion: a-number&#8211;optional<br />\n.<br />\nGeneral comments/License Statement if any.<br />\n.<br />\n*/<br />\n<em>CSS Goes here&#8230;</em></p></blockquote>\n<h2>Adding Template Tags To Your Theme</h2>\n<p><a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags\">Template Tags</a> are bits of code that WordPress uses to populate your website with content. Different tags display different bits of information from the WordPress database. These are the main tags needed to make your WordPress theme work.</p>\n<h3>Page Title &#8211; (<a href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LloH-XEco84\">video</a>)</h3>\n<p>Change whatever is within your &lt;title&gt;&lt;/title&gt; tags to:</p>\n<blockquote><p>&lt;?PHP wp_title(&#8221;); ?&gt;</p></blockquote>\n<h3>Stylesheet &#8211; (<a href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dhI4MUyCDk\">video</a>)</h3>\n<p>We are going to need to swap out the call to our stylesheet with:</p>\n<blockquote><p>&lt;link rel=&#8221;stylesheet&#8221; href=&#8221;&lt;?PHP bloginfo(&#8216;stylesheet_url&#8217;); ?&gt;&#8221; type=&#8221;text/css&#8221; media=&#8221;screen&#8221; /&gt;</p></blockquote>\n<h3>Plugin Hooks &#8211; (<a href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYUip_EYWEc\">video</a>)</h3>\n<p>Next you will need to add Action Hook Template Tags so WordPress plugins can access your theme. All you need to do is add:</p>\n<blockquote><p>&lt;?PHP wp_head(); ?&gt;</p></blockquote>\n<p>to your header (Usually write above the closing &lt;/head&gt; tag).</p>\n<p>Then you should add:</p>\n<blockquote><p>&lt;?PHP wp_footer(); ?&gt;</p></blockquote>\n<p>to your footer (Usually write above your &lt;/body&gt; tag).</p>\n<h3>Media and Script Paths &#8211; (<a href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvUsdC_P9L0\">video</a>)</h3>\n<p>By default, your paths will most likely reference your site root. You will need to point all of your multimedia, scripts and stylesheets to your new theme folder within the WordPress file structure using:</p>\n<blockquote><p>&lt;?PHP bloginfo(&#8216;template_directory&#8217;); ?&gt;</p></blockquote>\n<p>The easiest way to do this is to do a search and replace for &#8216;src=&#8217; and add the appropriate template tags. This is not fool proof as not all template structures are created equal but it will work a majority of the time.</p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1845\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"width: 430px\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-1845\" title=\"Search and Replace to change paths to WordPress theme paths\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/wordpress-html12.jpg\" alt=\"Search and Replace to change paths to WordPress theme paths\" width=\"420\" height=\"175\" /><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Search and Replace to change paths to WordPress theme paths</p></div>\n<h2>Adding The WordPress Loop</h2>\n<p><a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop\">The WordPress loop</a> is what handles all of your websites content. Its main components are:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>A header</li>\n<li>A permalink</li>\n<li>Some Content</li>\n</ul>\n<p>First you will need to identify where your content starts/repeats (if it repeats). The easiest way to do this is to look for your content&#8217;s header and begin The Loop there. The Loop will usually end immediately after your content unless you are displaying extra information below your entries. You will also need to identify where your content begins and ends. <em>Scroll to the end of this section to view some example code.</em></p>\n<h3>The Loop Code &#8211; (<a href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5wcOGHbNZo\">video</a>)</h3>\n<p>Beginning:</p>\n<blockquote><p>&lt;?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?&gt;</p></blockquote>\n<p>End:</p>\n<blockquote><p>&lt;?php endwhile; endif; ?&gt;</p></blockquote>\n<h3>Template Tags Within The Loop &#8211; (<a href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtzO017cNYQ\">video</a>)</h3>\n<p>The Title:</p>\n<blockquote><p>&lt;?php the_title(); ?&gt;</p></blockquote>\n<p>The Permalink</p>\n<blockquote><p>&lt;?php the_permalink() ?&gt;</p></blockquote>\n<p>The Content</p>\n<blockquote><p>&lt;?php the_content(&#8216;&lt;p&gt;Read more&lt;/p&gt;&#8217;); ?&gt;</p></blockquote>\n<h3>Example Code</h3>\n<p>So <a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/example1.txt\" target=\"_blank\">this</a> becomes <a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/example2.txt\" target=\"_blank\">this</a>.</p>\n<h2>Navigation &#8211; (<a href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XQigs-t6pk\">video</a>)</h2>\n<p>Most themes will have the navigation within an unordered list. This makes things easy for you. All you need to do is replace the list elements (everything between the &lt;ul&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; tags) with the following:</p>\n<blockquote><p>&lt;?PHP wp_list_pages(&#8216;title_li=&amp;depth=1&amp;sort_column=menu_order&amp;exclude=&#8217;); ?&gt;</p></blockquote>\n<p>This is the most basic of menus and wont display child pages. You can exclude pages by simply adding the page ids separated by comas after &#8220;exclude=&#8221;. Learn more about <a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_pages\">wp_list_pages()</a>.</p>\n<h2>Upload and Activate Your Theme</h2>\n<p>Now all you have to do is <a href=\"http://wordpress.thelinuxpenguin.com/\">upload your theme</a> folder which should now consist of:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>An index.php file with custom code</li>\n<li>A CSS file with header information about the theme</li>\n<li>An images folder with all of your images</li>\n</ul>\n<p>If all goes accordingly you should have a functional WordPress theme that allows you to add new pages and posts as well as use most popular WordPress plugins. <strong>It is important to note that you will not be able to add widgets to your sidebar and people will not be able to comment on posts. There may also be some other limitations due to the themes simplicity.</strong></p>\n<p>Feel free to <a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/contact/\">contact me</a> if you would like to learn how to bring your theme to the next level with a sidebar, comments and other interactive elements.</p>\n<h2>More Resources</h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development\">Theme

Some research by <a id=\"aptureLink_ggWLcfXlbi\" href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anders%20Ericsson\">K. Anders Ericsson</a>, Michael J. Prietula, and Edward T. Cokely stated:</p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;.. even the most gifted performers need a minimum of ten years (or 10,000 hours) of intense training before they win international competitions. In some fields the apprenticeship is longer: It now takes most elite musicians 15 to 25 years of steady practice, on average, before they succeed at the international level.&#8221; &#8211; <a href=\"http://www.coachingmanagement.nl/The%20Making%20of%20an%20Expert.pdf\">The Making of an Expert</a>, p4.</p></blockquote>\n<p>Not just that, you also need to maintain a high level of expertise over time and deliver consistent positive results.</p>\n<p>Luck also plays a large role as time and proper instruction cost money. Wealthier families are more likely to invest in their child&#8217;s schooling therefor logging their needed practice time early on in their lives.</p>\n<p>I also think a large part of being an expert at something requires a certain curiosity and drive that not everyone possesses. Most people give up way before they get close to the number of hours needed to master anything.</p>\n<h3>So Are All These Social Media Gurus and Web Experts The Real Deal?</h3>\n<p>Well if you&#8217;re going to take the <a id=\"aptureLink_DoQH4HIme0\" href=\"http://www.gladwell.com/outliers/outliers_excerpt1.html\">10,000 hour rule</a> literally, it&#8217;s very possible. This field is unique in that most of the true <a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/2008/10/e-learning-with-social-media/\">experts and pioneers are all somewhat  accessible via the Internet</a>. This eliminates the luck component of the expert formula by creating access to needed information with little to no cost.</p>\n<p>I have been making websites since 1999. Even if i had only spent 6 hours a day on my computer tinkering I would have reached my 10,000 hours within 5 years. Granted, some newer areas of interest haven&#8217;t even been around for 10 years, but aren&#8217;t these technologies mostly just advancements of existing ones. When the game changes the expert should be on top of their game.</p>\n<p>So go ahead and call yourself an expert if you think you&#8217;ve put in your time. I wont criticize you, just <a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/2009/08/actions-speak-louder-than-words/\">back it up with excellence</a>.</p>\n<p>- Photo by <a rel=\"dc:creator cc:attributionURL\" href=\"http://www.flickr.com/photos/kky/\">akakumo</a></p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?a=LtI8Cyzx9wQ:3myUO6_sm6U:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"></img></a> <a href=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?a=LtI8Cyzx9wQ:3myUO6_sm6U:gIN9vFwOqvQ\"><img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?i=LtI8Cyzx9wQ:3myUO6_sm6U:gIN9vFwOqvQ\" border=\"0\"></img></a> <a href=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?a=LtI8Cyzx9wQ:3myUO6_sm6U:F7zBnMyn0Lo\"><img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?i=LtI8Cyzx9wQ:3myUO6_sm6U:F7zBnMyn0Lo\" border=\"0\"></img></a> <a href=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?a=LtI8Cyzx9wQ:3myUO6_sm6U:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?i=LtI8Cyzx9wQ:3myUO6_sm6U:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"></img></a> <a href=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?a=LtI8Cyzx9wQ:3myUO6_sm6U:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"></img></a> <a href=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?a=LtI8Cyzx9wQ:3myUO6_sm6U:LQx-feW9hR8\"><img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?d=LQx-feW9hR8\" border=\"0\"></img></a>\n</div><img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/JonBishop/~4/LtI8Cyzx9wQ\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"/>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:59:\"http://www.jonbishop.com/2010/02/what-makes-an-expert/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1:\"9\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:42:\"http://rssnamespace.org/feedburner/ext/1.0\";a:1:{s:8:\"origLink\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:54:\"http://www.jonbishop.com/2010/02/what-makes-an-expert/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:13;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:50:\"\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n				\n		\n		\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n		\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:6:{s:0:\"\";a:7:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:36:\"Christmas Survival Guide for Twitter\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:56:\"http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/JonBishop/~3/m8lnTEklerY/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:79:\"http://www.jonbishop.com/2009/12/christmas-survival-guide-for-twitter/#comments\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 09 Dec 2009 20:58:37 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:4:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"Twitter\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:9:\"Christmas\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:2;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"Holiday\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:3;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"Twitter Guide\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:32:\"http://www.jonbishop.com/?p=1775\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:20:\"So you would like to\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:10:\"Jon Bishop\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:40:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/\";a:1:{s:7:\"encoded\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:4660:\"<p>So you would like to celebrate Christmas and the holidays on Twitter?

mainly use BackTweets but am always looking for better solutions. I actually <a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/2009/08/battle-of-the-retweet-buttons/\">switched from TweetMeme to BackTweets</a> once I learned about BackTweet&#8217;s advanced functionality and Google Analytics integration. But now I feel it&#8217;s time to take a look back and see where the world of Retweet counts, buttons and stats are really at.<span id=\"more-1752\"></span></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://backtweets.com/\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1765\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" title=\"BackTweets\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/backtweets.jpg\" alt=\"backtweets\" width=\"470\" height=\"90\" /></a></p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s start off with my current favorite. <a href=\"http://www.backtype.com/\">BackType</a> is a conversational search engine that scans the web for comments about your posts not necessarily on your posts. Where their original intent was to connect blog comments from one blog to another, one can see why they eventually got into the Twitter game. Using their existing technology they expanded their offerings to a site called BackTweets which became one of my favorite sites in an instant.</p>\n<p>BackTweets keeps a fairly up to date list of all mentions of your blog. You can search for <a href=\"http://backtweets.com/search?q=jonbishop.com\">all links back to your blog</a> or for <a href=\"http://backtweets.com/search?q=jonbishop.com/2009/06/16-twitter-analogies-to-help-you-explain-twitter/\">specific posts</a>. The data isn&#8217;t much different than Topsy&#8217;s and TweetMeme&#8217;s, I just feel like it&#8217;s the fastest and cleanest, but that&#8217;s just my personal opinion.</p>\n<p>I think BackTweets really shines with their <a href=\"http://www.backtype.com/widgets/tweetcount\">TweetCount widget</a> which lets you customize everything from the color and source to weather or not you want it to be RT or &#8220;via&#8221;. Oh, and they automatically add Google Analytic parameters complements of <a href=\"http://totally.awe.sm/\">Awe.sm</a>. Doesn&#8217;t get much better than that. Thanks BackType!</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://tweetmeme.com/\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1766\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" title=\"TweetMeme\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/tweetmeme.jpg\" alt=\"tweetmeme\" width=\"470\" height=\"90\" /></a></p>\n<p>Now on to the grandfather of Retweet tracking and indexing. TweetMeme is still my favorite Digg style Tweet aggregator for instant notification on hot topics and trends. Their RT button is probably the most used because of the websites popularity and is almost as dynamic as the BackTweet TweetCount button but falls short at color customization and Google Analytics integration. However, to compensate for the lack of GA integration, they have <a href=\"http://blog.tweetmeme.com/2009/10/07/tweetmeme-analytics/\">developed their own analytics</a> that can track the viral nature of Retweets as they spread throughout Twitter. While I appreciate the entrepreneurial spirit, I prefer integrated analytics where available and prefer the BackTweets button for this reason.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://topsy.com/\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1767\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" title=\"Topsy\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Topsy.jpg\" alt=\"Topsy\" width=\"470\" height=\"90\" /></a></p>\n<p>I had heard of Topsy but never really learned what they are about. Topsy is basically a Twitter search engine that ranks links being shared based on relevance and influence of those sharing the links. They offer <a href=\"http://labs.topsy.com/widgets/retweet-button/\">a Retweet Count button</a> as well as a list of all tweets linking back to your posts. What really struck me was that they also displayed which shortened URLs were used as well as all tags and authors involved in the process. This could become my new favorite dashboard for viewing Twitter activity around a specific link but it will take a bit more before I switch over to their Retweet button.</p>\n<h3>Some Things Worth Mentioning</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://bit.ly/\">Bit.ly</a> uses <a href=\"http://www.backtype.com/\">BackType&#8217;s</a> data to display conversations relevant to your shortened links</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://tweetmeme.com/\">TweetMeme</a> has a site very similar to it called <a href=\"http://retweet.com/\">Retweet.com</a> however it is pretty much just a ripoff of TweetMeme and TweetMeme seems to work much better</p>\n<p>Sometimes, BackType&#8217;s data will differ from TweetMeme and Topsy however the BackType TweetCount widget seems to display correct data</p>\n<p>Be sure to check

of the time when talking about RTs, <a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/2009/02/rules-of-the-retweet/\">we discuss the best times to post to Twitter and the number of characters you should be using</a> and so on and so forth. But let&#8217;s step back a second and talk about how people RT from our blogs.</p>\n<p><strong>Do you know how many people are RTing your content from your blog vs on Twitter?</strong></p>\n<p>A lot of bloggers don&#8217;t even realize that they are potentially preventing their readers from RTing their content by not having functional RT buttons. I see a lot of buttons that do any one of the following:<br />\n<span id=\"more-1685\"></span>\n<ul>\n<li>Post to Twitter with only an unshortened link (<a href=\"http://twitter.com/?status=http://www.jonbishop.com/2009/11/get-more-retweets-out-of-your-retweet-button\">example</a>)</li>\n<li>Post to Twitter with no link and only a title (<a href=\"http://twitter.com/?status=Get+More+ReTweets+Out+Of+Your+ReTweet+Button\">example</a>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Both of which a lot of people might just abandon and you&#8217;ve lost out on a RT.</p>\n<p>And then there are people who get very close but miss in the end by doing one of the following:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Post to Twitter with an unshortened link and a title (<a href=\"http://twitter.com/?status=Get+More+ReTweets+Out+Of+Your+ReTweet+Button+http://www.jonbishop.com/2009/11/get-more-retweets-out-of-your-retweet-button\">example</a>)</li>\n<li>Post to Twitter with a shortened link and a title with a default source (<a href=\"http://twitter.com/?status=RT+@tweetmeme:+Get+More+ReTweets+Out+Of+Your+ReTweet+Button+http://bit.ly/2RiS7W\">example</a>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Why do we all tout the same advice on Twitter about RTs and somehow we don&#8217;t take that same advice to our blogs.</p>\n<h3>Some Things Your RT Button Should Do</h3>\n<p><strong>Shorten Your Link</strong></p>\n<p>URL shortening is important for a few reasons:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Allows potential for measurement</li>\n<li>Creates more space when RTing</li>\n</ul>\n<p>It&#8217;s also important to use the right URL shortener. For example I know of people, myself included, who prefer clicking on <a href=\"http://bit.ly/\">bitly</a> links over <a href=\"http://ow.ly/\">owly</a> links because of the way they go about opening content. I have recently become a huge fan of the URL shortening service <a href=\"http://create.awe.sm/demo\">Awe.sm</a> because of their Google Analytics integration and ease of use.</p>\n<p><strong>Use ReTweetable Titles</strong></p>\n<p>Most, if not all, RT buttons will just use the page title as the title to be tweeted. This causes a problem with most blogs as most themes automatically generate a title that usually includes the blog name along with some nifty symbols to separate the name and the title. You eventually end up with something like:</p>\n<blockquote><p>Jon Bishops Blog // This Is My Post // Awesome Blog Stuff http://bit.ly/1JrOCZ</p></blockquote>\n<p>It just doesn&#8217;t look all that pretty and at first glance in the public timeline on Twitter could be interpreted as spam.</p>\n<p><strong>Give You Credit</strong></p>\n<p>If you are using a popular RT button like <a href=\"http://tweetmeme.com/about/retweet_button\">TweetMeme</a> or <a href=\"http://www.backtype.com/widgets/tweetcount\">BackTypes</a>, be sure to change the default source to your own Twitter name. Wouldn&#8217;t you rather see a bunch of RTs with your name in it rather than @tweetmeme or @backtype. This one always surprises me and then I have to go and hunt down the bloggers Twitter name to give the proper credit.</p>\n<p><strong>Make It Simple</strong></p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t create extra steps for your readers willing to share your content. Use buttons that send them straight to Twitter, no middle man. I&#8217;ve never been a fan of <a href=\"http://twitthis.com/\">http://twitthis.com/</a> for that very reason. It creates an extra step between me and retweeting a post when all I want is a shortened URL to share. I also don&#8217;t like allowing 3rd party sites because, well, I don&#8217;t trust anyone these days.</p>\n<h3>Easiest Solutions</h3>\n<p>I&#8217;ve <a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/2009/08/battle-of-the-retweet-buttons/\">compared a few of these services in further detail in a previous post</a> but the easiest way to make sure you are using the best RT button is to use the <a href=\"http://tweetmeme.com/about/retweet_button\">TweetMeme Button</a> or <a href=\"http://www.backtype.com/widgets/tweetcount\">BackType&#8217;s TweetCount widget</a>. Also be sure to properly configure it so that your title&#8217;s make sense and it&#8217;s not using the default source.</p>\n<p><strong>Click my RT button at the top of this post to see how it&#8217;s done ;)</strong></p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/JonBishop?a=gJjTXtFthSQ:ZCGTYaR5PNc:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img

I submerse myself more and more into the world of <a href=\"http://diythemes.com/?a_aid=jonbish\">Thesis from DIYthemes</a>, I am gaining a huge appreciation for all of the enhancements it provides to the WordPress platform. Furthermore, I have developed a new found appreciation for developers who have taken the time to create WordPress plugins that integrate easily with the Thesis theme.<span id=\"more-1606\"></span></p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t know about Thesis yet, <a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/2009/09/why-is-thesis-such-a-great-premium-wordpress-theme/\">check out my post about why I am such a fan</a>.</p>\n<p>The following plugins all make use of the Thesis framework to make their installations extremely painless. Most make use of Thesis additional WordPress hooks to display content in places that were previously inaccessible. I&#8217;ve yet to find a solid list of Thesis ready plugins on the Internet so I took the time to put this list together for whoever is curious.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/thesis-openhook/\">Thesis OpenHook</a></h3>\n<p>Thesis OpenHook takes the process of modifying Thesis and simplifies it! I couldn&#8217;t properly make a list of Thesis ready WordPress plugins without including the grandfather of them all. This plugin lets you take full advantage of Thesis additional hooks.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/thesis-settings-export/\">Thesis Import/Export</a></h3>\n<p>With this plugin, you can download individual data files for Thesis Options, Design Options, and all OpenHook content.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/breadcrumbs/\">Yoast Breadcrumbs</a></h3>\n<p>Automatically add breadcrumbs to your site with no Template tweaks as long as you are running Thesis.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/thesography/\">Thesography</a></h3>\n<p>The purpose of this plugin is to make displaying EXIF data as convenient as possible, while using as much of WordPress&#8217; native image handling as possible. It can be inserted automatically into the Thesis theme.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/javascript-nofollow-links/\">Javascript Nofollow Links</a></h3>\n<p>This plugin replaces the standard anchor tag for comment author links with a bold tag and adds javascript behavior on the new tag to allow it to be clicked. It contains code for Thesis theme users to remove the redundant link on comment avatars.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/pixopoint-menu/\">PixoPoint Menu Plugin</a></h3>\n<p>Adds an SEO friendly, accessible regular or dropdown menu to your WordPress blog. Uses wppagemenu() which is also used by Thesis so no extra steps are needed after installation.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/commentwitter/\">Commentwitter</a></h3>\n<p>Gives commenters the option of Tweeting their comments with a link to your post. Uses Thesis hooks to automatically display necessary code below your comment forms.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/visual-recent-posts/\">Visual Recent Posts</a></h3>\n<p>This plugin gives the look of a magazine-style website with thumbnails and excerpts in a clean layout. Easily place your Recent Visual Posts by simply inserting your desired Thesis hook on the settings page.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/fv-descriptions/\">FV Descriptions</a></h3>\n<p>Simple plugin which allows you to mass edit the description fields of your choice</p>\n<h3>Honorable Mentions</h3>\n<p>These plugins don&#8217;t use the Thesis framework like the plugins above however were developed with Thesis in mind at some point during their development process.</p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/results-count-remix/\">Results Count Remix</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-menu-creator/\">WordPress Menu Creator</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-ajax-edit-comments/\">Ajax Edit Comments</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-greet-box/\">WP Greet Box</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/subscribe-to-comments/\">Subscribe to Comments</a></li>\n</ul>\n<p>It&#8217;s important to note that most other plugins would work just as well with Thesis than with any other theme. This is only a list of plugins made with Thesis in mind.<strong> If you know of any other WordPress plugins that make use of the Thesis framework, please share them below.</strong></p>\n<p><em>Disclaimer: All links to <a href=\"http://diythemes.com/?a_aid=jonbish\">Thesis</a> from this blog are an affiliate link.

For others it is an all inclusive content management system for their corporate website. Developers continue to recommend WordPress as a CMS because of all the extended functionality contributed by the community as well as it&#8217;s raw simplicity.<span id=\"more-1537\"></span></p>\n<p>So I decided to put together a list of plugins that can help you turn WordPress into pretty much whatever you want it to be. All plugins link to the WordPress plugin repository and have been updated within the year. This list differs from <a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/2009/07/13-wordpress-plugins-you-need-to-know-exist/\">previous</a> <a href=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/2009/03/awesome-twitter-plugins-for-wordpress/\">plugin</a> <a href=\"http://www.magicomm.biz/blog/apture-finally-closing-the-multimeda-gap-in-wordpress\">lists</a> because of it&#8217;s depth and thought that went into comprising the list. I was very careful to not just repeat what <a href=\"http://www.noupe.com/wordpress/wordpress-cms-plugins.html\">other</a> <a href=\"http://blueprintds.com/blog/2008/03/13/top-10-wordpress-cms-plugins/\">blogs</a> <a href=\"http://www.wpthemesplugin.com/cms-plugins-for-wordpress-part-4/\">have</a> <a href=\"http://themeshaper.com/wordpress-cms-plugins-the-bare-minimum/\">posted</a> and hope you find something new and useful here.</p>\n<h1>SEO</h1>\n<h3><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/headspace2/\">HeadSpace2 SEO</a></h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/headspace2/\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-1562 aligncenter\" title=\"HeadSpace2 SEO\" src=\"http://www.jonbishop.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/headspace.jpg\" alt=\"HeadSpace2 SEO\" width=\"470\" height=\"198\" /></a></p>\n<p>HeadSpace2 is an all-in-one meta-data manager that allows you to fine-tune the SEO potential of your site.

We&#8217;ve been waiting on Apple to implement this feature, and with iOS 5 they finally have. So 2.4 supports adding a retina version of your startup screen image if you&#8217;d like to use one.</p>\n<p>Additionally, it&#8217;s now possible with iOS 5 to add a Landscape version of the startup image for iPad. effectively now you can offer startup screens in your WPtouch Pro Web-App in exactly the same way that native apps can.</p>\n<h3>FitVid.js</h3>\n<p>In WPtouch Pro 2.4 we&#8217;ve added the <a href=\"http://fitvidsjs.com/\">fitvids.js</a> jQuery plugin, which takes your object, embed, iframe and html5 videos in posts and pages and automatically scales them based on orientation, and screen size. In WPtouch Pro 2.4 <em>your videos will always look great.</em></p>\n<h3>Aloha! iOS 5 Native Scrolling</h3>\n<p>As if the above wasn&#8217;t enough, we&#8217;ve also added iOS 5 native scrolling for Web-App Mode on mobile, and replaced the javascript scrolling we used on iPad with iOS 5 native scrolling. </p>\n<h4>iOS 5 on iPhone &#038; iPod touch</h4>\n<p>Now in Web-App mode the header remains fixed like native apps, while the body content scrolls in native speed and momentum. </p>\n<h4>iOS 5 on iPad</h4>\n<p>The result is a smooth scrolling experience, coupled with access to features in mobileSafari which were previously impossible on iPad like text selection. For previous iOS versions on iPad, the scrolling method will gracefully degrade.</p>\n<h4>&#9829; Android</h4>\n<p>Along with several styling and appearance improvements for Android devices, we&#8217;ve also added support for <em>ontouchstart</em> and <em>ontouchend</em> to Android. This speeds up interacting with the UI and makes for a more native experience.</p>\n<h4>The Whole Story</h4>\n<p>For a complete list of changes for 2.4 you can visit <a href=\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/support/topic/wptouch-pro-24-released-tuesday-oct-25th\">the support posting about the new release</a> (you need to be logged in with a pro account), or view the change log in the read me accompanying the update.</p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:67:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/10/wptouch-pro-2-4-unleashed/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:2:\"16\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:3;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:59:\"\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n				\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n		\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:5:{s:0:\"\";a:7:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:49:\"State of the Code, 08/2011: The Future of WPtouch\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:83:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/08/state-of-the-code-082011-the-future-of-wptouch/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:92:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/08/state-of-the-code-082011-the-future-of-wptouch/#comments\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Fri, 26 Aug 2011 20:46:15 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:7:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:12:\"BraveNewCode\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"Featured\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:2;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"Journal\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:3;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:9:\"WordPress\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:4;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"WPtouch\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:5;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:11:\"WPtouch Pro\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:6;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:17:\"state of the code\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:35:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/?p=5596\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:333:\"&#8220;What works good is better than what looks good, because what works good lasts.&#8221; ~ RAY EAMES It&#8217;s almost September, and here at BraveNewCode the fall is always a productive time.

Last year we were hard at work in the fall delivering the 2.1 update for <a href=\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/wptouch-pro/\">WPtouch Pro</a> which brought child themes, iPad support, and a slew of new capabilities. We were also busy launching <a href=\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/piggy/\">Piggy</a>, our mobile web-app for WordPress e-Commerce sales stats, and also began work on <a href=\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/wordtwit-pro/\">WordTwit Pro</a>, the premium version of our popular WordPress to Twitter publishing tool.</p>\n<h3>Today</h3>\n<p>We&#8217;ve been humbled by the success of WPtouch and WPtouch Pro. To date, WPtouch (+ Pro) runs on over 25 million WordPress websites worldwide, encompassing both self-hosted WordPress.org websites and WordPress.com hosted websites. The simple, elegant and easy-to-use nature of our plugins coupled with our attention to detail and customer care have made us the #1 choice for mobile presentation of a WordPress website, and for this we have to thank our users and customers.</p>\n<h3>WPtouch (free version)</h3>\n<p>The free version of WPtouch is regularly maintained, and in recent updates we&#8217;ve added some small features, expanded 3rd party plugin support and increased security. We&#8217;ll continue to do so going forward, and at some point in the not too distant future we&#8217;ll hand-down some of the Pro features to WPtouch.</p>\n<h3>WPtouch Pro 2.x</h3>\n<p>There are a few milestones we&#8217;d like to reach with the 2.x series of WPtouch Pro. Specifically, more performance and speed improvements both to its themes and the admin panel. Improvements and enhancements in media handling to make it easier to publish audio, video and photos with WPtouch Pro are also planned for the 2.x release series. Improvements and enhancements on iPad are also coming alongside the release of Apple&#8217;s iOS 5 software update, due this fall.</p>\n<h3>The Marketplace</h3>\n<p>Inevitably, more competitors are entering the mobile market with WordPress and trying to cash in on our success and the popularity that mobile + tablet devices are enjoying worldwide. There&#8217;s certainly room for competition and we&#8217;re inspired by the WordPress development communities&#8217; creativity.</p>\n<p>It seems that WPtouch Pro is the gold standard in mobile plugins; competing products are only now adding some comparable features that WPtouch Pro users <em>have enjoyed for over a year now.</em> It&#8217;s exciting to see that our innovations have made an impression, and mobile plugins are expected to offer a baseline of features that we pioneered with WPtouch.</p>\n<h3>Even Further</h3>\n<p>We&#8217;d like to revolutionize the way mobile themes are made once again. We&#8217;ve examined usage and feedback we&#8217;ve received and are inventing new ways to approach mobile theme creation and curation. We&#8217;re also looking at improving theming options and the extensibility of WPtouch Pro.</p>\n<p>We hope customers are going to love what we&#8217;ll be delivering with WPtouch Pro down the road.</p>\n<p>~The BraveNewCode Team</p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:88:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/08/state-of-the-code-082011-the-future-of-wptouch/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:2:\"37\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:4;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:56:\"\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n				\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n		\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:5:{s:0:\"\";a:7:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:36:\"Notice: Free Product Support Changes\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:72:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/07/notice-free-product-support-changes/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:81:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/07/notice-free-product-support-changes/#comments\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Fri, 29 Jul 2011 14:02:11 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:6:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:10:\"Earth Hour\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"WordTwit\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:2;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"WPtouch\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:3;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:10:\"earth hour\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:4;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"support\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:5;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:9:\"WordPress\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:35:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/?p=5475\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:334:\"This is a general notice to all visitors who currently do not have a License for our WPtouch Pro, WordTwit Pro or Piggy products.

That means PHP 4 will no longer be supported by WordPress itself.</p>\n<p>As a plugin developer, PHP 4 definitely makes life more complicated.  Plugins end up becoming bloated when you need to have separate code for both PHP 4 and PHP 5.  Removing the dependency on PHP 4 allows WordPress to remove old code and help streamline the entire codebase.</p>\n<p>What does that mean for the users of our products?</p>\n<p>Both <a href=\"/store/plugins/wptouch-pro/\">WPtouch Pro</a> and <a href=\"/store/plugins/piggy/\">Piggy</a> currently work with later versions of PHP 4 currently.  Some time after WordPress 3.2 comes out, we will deprecate support for PHP 4.</p>\n<p>Internally our policy has always been to try (when possible) to support the last two major versions, so when 3.2 comes out we&#8217;ll be supporting it and 3.1.  But as development proceeds on the next version of WordPress, we&#8217;ll remove the PHP 4 aspects from our code and start using PHP 5 exclusively.  That allows the code to be smaller, newer (usually more efficient) and we can use PHP 5 functions only, which in general results in a faster development cycle.</p>\n<p><a href=\"/wordtwit-pro/\">WordTwit Pro</a>, which has just been released requires PHP 5 already.</p>\n<p>So if you&#8217;re a WordPress user you should start looking at what your host provides in PHP support to make sure you&#8217;re ready when 3.2 is released. On many hosts switching to PHP 5 is as simple as clicking a button in the hosting control panel, and on others you can usually add a small snippet to your .htaccess file.  Unfortunately there are still some hosts that do not provide PHP 5 at all, and for those you will probably have to find an alternate host, or explain to them why they should add support immediately to allow their customers to upgrade their WordPress installations.</p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:83:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/06/wordpress-3-2-what-it-means-for-our-users/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:2:\"14\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:7;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:80:\"\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n				\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n		\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:5:{s:0:\"\";a:7:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:24:\"Introducing WordTwit Pro\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:61:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/06/introducing-wordtwit-pro/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:70:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/06/introducing-wordtwit-pro/#comments\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Mon, 06 Jun 2011 19:49:48 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:14:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:12:\"BraveNewCode\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"Featured\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:2;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:5:\"Piggy\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:3;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:9:\"WordPress\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:4;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"WordTwit\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:5;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:12:\"WordTwit Pro\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:6;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"WPtouch\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:7;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:11:\"WPtouch Pro\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:8;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:5:\"piggy\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:9;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"plugins\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:10;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"products\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:11;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"Updates\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:12;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:12:\"wordtwit pro\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:13;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:2:\"wp\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:35:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/?p=5246\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:361:\"WordPress, Meet Twitter Today we&#8217;re excited to reveal what we&#8217;ve been working on for the past few months: WordTwit Pro, our premium version of WordTwit, the best WordPress to Twitter publishing plugin.

Set schedule, repeat &#038; delay options for a new status update; select and publish to multiple Twitter accounts; Authorize those account for shared use among other WordPress authors on your site; easily add custom hashtags and more— all <em>on-the-fly</em> in a few clicks with the new WordTwit Pro publishing widget.</p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5283\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"width: 206px\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-5283\" title=\"Multiple Accounts\" src=\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/screenshot-2011-06-01-at-2.30.51-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"196\" height=\"143\" /><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Multiple Accounts</p></div>\n<h4>Multiple Account Bliss</h4>\n<p>In WordTwit Pro you can easily setup multiple Twitter accounts for publishing. And it&#8217;s easy to decide which accounts WordTwit Pro will publish to, on a completely per-post basis.</p>\n<p>WordTwit Pro also supports setting accounts as shared or private— perfect for multi-author websites to control the publishing options available for each contributor, author or editor.</p>\n<p>And you can even authorize other authors to add their own Twitter accounts securely.</p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5287\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"width: 218px\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-5287 \" title=\"Tweet Scheduling\" src=\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/screenshot-2011-06-01-at-2.33.13-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"208\" height=\"115\" /><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tweet Scheduling</p></div>\n<h4>Scheduling Galore</h4>\n<p>As with the free version, WordTwit Pro can immediately publish a tweet about your new post to Twitter. Now with WordTwit Pro we&#8217;ve added easy to use scheduling, which allows for multiple tweets to be published to Twitter separated by the time you specify, <em>on a per-post basis.</em></p>\n<p>For example, you can now:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Delay the first tweet from publishing right away for a certain amount of time</li>\n<li>Specify that a tweet be published multiple times, at the interval you choose</li>\n<li>And do both!</li>\n</ul>\n<h3>Custom #Hashtags</h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_5290\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"width: 277px\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-5290\" title=\"Hashtag Support\" src=\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/screenshot-2011-06-01-at-2.34.47-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"267\" height=\"246\" /><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hashtag Support</p></div>\n<p>We&#8217;ve also added another often-requested feature, but went over-the-top in our implementation: <em>totally custom hashtag support.</em></p>\n<p>Instead of just accessing WordPress&#8217; categories or tags to use as hashtags, we&#8217;ve built our own hash-tagging system which allows you to quickly and easily add hashtags to your tweets.</p>\n<p>It also smart— the new publishing widget provides you with a list of your popular/recently used hashtags and in a few clicks you can add the ones you want to a tweet.</p>\n<p>So whether you&#8217;re adding a hashtag that&#8217;s totally new or those you use often— it&#8217;s a breeze to add hashtags to your WordTwit Pro tweets.</p>\n<h3>Click To Edit</h3>\n<p>We&#8217;ve also added a new Manual Mode for the publishing widget.

Since that time it&#8217;s seen massive success— some of it beyond its 2 million downloads via wordpress.org. WPtouch is also used on WordPress.com, powering millions and millions of WordPress websites everywhere.</p>\n<h3>Becoming The Standard</h3>\n<p>With it&#8217;s pairing of ease of use and great features, WPtouch has become the standard mobile plugin for WordPress websites. Users the world over enjoy it&#8217;s uncompromising support for standard WordPress features while providing fast, efficient mobile presentation of content.</p>\n<h3>Going Pro</h3>\n<p>In the summer of last year we released the premium successor to WPtouch, WPtouch Pro. With the Pro version we added over 200 new features and capabilities, and improved every aspect of the product delivering an extremely high-quality plugin that offers incredible value— something competing products have yet to beat.</p>\n<p>In January of this year we shipped a major update to WPtouch Pro, 2.1. In that update we delivered amazing iPad support, integrated in an easy to use way that shared many common settings with the mobile theme. Other products simply can&#8217;t offer the depth of features, capability, quality and ease of use that WPtouch Pro customers enjoy.</p>\n<h3>The Future</h3>\n<p>Going forward, we hope to hand-down some the advancements made in WPtouch Pro to our freely available version. And more updates and new features, themes and more are planned for WPtouch Pro releases throughout the next 15 months.</p>\n<h3>Thanks To You</h3>\n<p>All of the attention, success and love for WPtouch and BraveNewCode as a company is thanks <em>solely to our users and customers.</em> </p>\n<p>We&#8217;re a small company, and our business is built on great user experiences and word-of-mouth reviews and recommendations— so thank you to everyone who&#8217;s been behind us and our work.</p>\n<p>See you at 3,000,000!</p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:74:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/06/wptouch-over-2-million-downloads/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1:\"5\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:9;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:62:\"\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n				\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n		\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:5:{s:0:\"\";a:7:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:75:\"A Response to Jakob Nielsen’s (Unknowing) Review Of WPtouch’s Usability\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:104:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/03/a-response-to-jakob-nielsens-unknowing-review-of-wptouchs-usability/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:113:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/03/a-response-to-jakob-nielsens-unknowing-review-of-wptouchs-usability/#comments\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 30 Mar 2011 14:06:58 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:8:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:12:\"BraveNewCode\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"Journal\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:2;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"WPtouch\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:3;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:11:\"WPtouch Pro\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:4;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"jakob nielson\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:5;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:6:\"Mobile\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:6;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"reviews\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:7;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:9:\"usability\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:35:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/?p=5168\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:345:\"Recently Jakob Nielsen (famed usability consultant) posted a review of a website&#8217;s mobile version, which (it seems he didn&#8217;t realize) was running WPtouch.

The drop-arrow that reveals the excerpt is also a configuration option (excerpts shown) in the admin settings.</p>\n<blockquote><p>2. <strong>Bigger touch targets</strong>. The entire story tile can now be tapped, and users no longer need the added precision of tapping the headline itself&#8230;</p></blockquote>\n<p>We agree that the full tile as a clickable link is a good thing— but hard to implement given our options for this area. We chose instead to add a &#8220;read this article&#8221; link in addition to being able to tap on a title.</p>\n<blockquote><p>3. <strong>Full headlines</strong> instead of truncated headlines. This is probably the biggest redesign&#8230;</p></blockquote>\n<p>Full headlines or truncated headlines is also an option in the WPtouch settings.</p>\n<blockquote><p>4. <strong>Enhanced scannability</strong> by highlighting each pop star&#8217;s name in the headlines.</p></blockquote>\n<p>This we can&#8217;t really do anything about, nor WordPress itself without some custom hacking around.</p>\n<blockquote><p>5. <strong>Even more information scent</strong> by showing a short story summary (a &#8220;deck&#8221;) under each headline.</p></blockquote>\n<p>Let&#8217;s be honest, the term &#8220;information scent&#8221; is kind of creepy, no? (jk, Jakob).</p>\n<p>Here Jakob doesn&#8217;t know that we are simply creating excerpts automatically from post content, and thus need to truncate. WPtouch will show the custom excerpt set for a post if it&#8217;s used.</p>\n<blockquote><p>6. <strong>Using pop star photos instead of date icons.</strong> Not only does this add some visual interest, it further enhances scannability and information scent as many users will recognize their favorite star&#8217;s face faster than they can read a headline.</p></blockquote>\n<p>WPtouch supports using thumbnails instead of the calendar icons as an admin option.</p>\n<blockquote><p>7. <strong>Room for 4 full story tiles without scrolling.</strong> The slightly tighter spacing lets users view the entire 4th story summary in their first scan of the page. If users do scroll down, the ability to view more tiles in less space also means that they work a bit less for each new story, and so they&#8217;re likely to want more of them. Because this second benefit is relatively small, we considered making the tiles smaller to display more stories on the first screen. On balance, the added information scent from the story summaries and pop star photos seemed a better use of the space — but testing an alternative would be worthwhile.</p></blockquote>\n<p>We disagree with this one— it&#8217;s a common practice on the web to &#8220;cut the fold&#8221;, meaning that content is cut-off at the bottom of the viewport to reveal to a user that scrolling will shown more content. If everything is neatly shown above the bottom of the viewport, it might appear that <em>that&#8217;s all there is.</em></p>\n<p>Additionally, because WPtouch dynamically truncates excerpts, some tiles are taller vertically than others. We spent a considerable amount of time trying all the variations in the settings to find a happy place where the appearance of a tile was decent no matter what the options were.</p>\n<blockquote><p>8. <strong>Showing the publication date only as a divider</strong> between stories published on different dates. Because so many stories are published each day, users typically see only the current day&#8217;s date when they access the site, unless they scroll down far enough to reach yesterday&#8217;s news. Thus, the story date is not worth the substantial screen real estate it occupies in the live design. In general, it&#8217;s good to question any mobile design that repeats the same information multiple times; such redundancy is probably a poor use of highly limited screen space.</p></blockquote>\n<p>Jakob doesn&#8217;t know that when thumbnails are used in WPtouch, the date is shown below the title of the post instead. We did look at designs where we only showed the date as a divider between posts, but it didn&#8217;t quite look/work right with the &#8220;Load More Entries&#8221; feature, so we canned it because it seemed confusing.</p>\n<blockquote><p>9. <strong>Adding more space between the navigation bar&#8217;s two options</strong> so users are less likely to touch the wrong one.</p></blockquote>\n<p>This one makes sense, though we don&#8217;t often find that users struggle with the WPtouch header links, we decided in <em>WPtouch Pro</em> to get rid of the thin bar below the header bar altogether in favour of the drop-down menu.</p>\n<blockquote><p>10. <strong>Labeling the drop-down menu instead of simply denoting it by a triangle. </strong>(It&#8217;s just above search in the original design — a subtle presentation that&#8217;s mostly overlooked by users.) Depending on which commands are actually in the menu, a different name might be better. We didn&#8217;t redesign the entire navigation system, but we assumed that a revised categorization system would be the most valuable and usable way to navigate the site, after headline-tapping and search. (See our seminar on IA structuring for more information on how to determine the best access schemes.)</p></blockquote>\n<p>In WPtouch Pro we moved all links on the thin bar within a menu toggle button which has the text &#8220;Menu&#8221;, precisely because we agree with this thinking. In all honesty we haven&#8217;t gotten around to doing the changes in WPtouch 1.9.x, but plan to.</p>\n<h4>Not Too Shabby</h4>\n<p>So there you have it! I think Jakob would be impressed to see most of the things he critiqued are included as options in WPtouch, our free mobile plugin offering for WordPress.</p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:109:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/03/a-response-to-jakob-nielsens-unknowing-review-of-wptouchs-usability/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:2:\"31\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:10;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:65:\"\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n				\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n		\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:5:{s:0:\"\";a:7:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:29:\"WPtouch Pro 2.2 Now Available\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:66:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/03/wptouch-pro-2-2-now-available/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:75:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/03/wptouch-pro-2-2-now-available/#comments\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Tue, 29 Mar 2011 18:21:13 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:9:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"Journal\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"WPtouch\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:2;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:11:\"WPtouch Pro\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:3;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:3:\"2.2\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:4;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:6:\"iPhone\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:5;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"plugins\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:6;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"releases\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:7;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"Updates\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:8;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:9:\"WordPress\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:35:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/?p=5127\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:342:\"WPtouch Pro 2.2 Now Available We&#8217;re always looking at ways we can improve, optimize and streamline our work, especially for our mobile plugins WPtouch, WPtouch Pro and Piggy.

After a solid four weeks of work, every corner of our premium mobile plugin offering was given a good wash and made even better for our customers.</p>\n<p><strong><em>WPtouch Pro 2.2 is a free update for all existing customers.</em></strong></p>\n<h4>Highlights</h4>\n<div id=\"attachment_5159\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"width: 231px\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-5159 \" title=\"screenshot- 2011-03-29 at 12.57.02 PM\" src=\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/screenshot-2011-03-29-at-12.57.02-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"221\" height=\"430\" /><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">2.2 Web-App Mode Notice Bubble</p></div>\n<p>With WPtouch Pro we revolutionized mobile WordPress plugins bringing our one-of-a-kind Web-App Mode feature to WordPress self-hosted sites everywhere.</p>\n<p>With Web-App Mode you can effortlessly offer a fullscreen web application version of you website for visitors on iOS devices, out-of-the-box.</p>\n<p>In WPtouch Pro 2.2, the technology unpinning Web-App Mode has been re-written for even better performance and reliability, on both mobile and iPad.</p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve also improved compatibility with other WordPress plugins that require AJAX like Google Translate. For these plugins, a single click disables WPtouch Pro&#8217;s AJAX in web-app mode to ensure compatibility. WPtouch Pro then intelligently uses a new method for loading your site pages without AJAX, all while maintaining a smooth, fast mobile web application experience.</p>\n<h4>Squish!</h4>\n<p>We also took the time needed to eliminate a variety of smaller issues that crept up after the 2.1 release.

That said, there&#8217;s lot of new features, settings and options, so when loading the WPtouch Pro admin on some servers it resulted in less optimal performance.</p>\n<p>So we wanted to do better. We&#8217;ve re-factored code and reduced memory usage. We also made a variety of changes to many smaller aspects of the way our revolutionary admin panel works to slim and shave load times and improve usability.</p>\n<p>Our admin panel is truly awesome, offering all settings for WPtouch Pro in one place— all in a clean, easy to use layout.</p>\n<p><div id=\"attachment_5162\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"width: 308px\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-5162 \" title=\"screenshot- 2011-03-29 at 12.58.32 PM\" src=\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/screenshot-2011-03-29-at-12.58.32-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"298\" height=\"125\" /><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">2.2— optimized JavaScript</p></div>On the theme side WPtouch on mobile and iPad runs smoother than ever, up to 1.5x times faster* with its re-factored code.

Searches, archive results, and of course the category drop-down list all respect the excluded categories defined in WPtouch.</p>\n<p><strong>Exclude by Tag</strong></p>\n<p>In the process, we&#8217;ve added the same control and power to exclude by tag, and you can even combine the two and WPouch will take care of it, without affecting whatever you&#8217;re doing on your desktop theme.</p>\n<p><strong>Other Bugs</strong></p>\n<p>We also cleaned up some more code and went through debug logs to make sure WPtouch runs error, warning, and php notice free on your server.</p>\n<p><strong>Coming Up</strong></p>\n<p>The next release (1.9.25) will be available soon and lays the troubles to rest, along with adding new filters to make sure WPtouch doesn&#8217;t load on the Samsung Galaxy Tab or Motorola Xoom tablets.</p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:67:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/03/wordpress-3-1-and-wptouch/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1:\"8\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:12;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:74:\"\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n				\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n		\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:5:{s:0:\"\";a:7:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:39:\"WPtouch 1.9.23, Earth Hour 1.5 Releases\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:77:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/03/wptouch-1-9-23-earth-hour-1-4-1-releases/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:86:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/03/wptouch-1-9-23-earth-hour-1-4-1-releases/#comments\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 09 Mar 2011 21:34:37 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:12:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:12:\"BraveNewCode\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:10:\"Earth Hour\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:2;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:11:\"Environment\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:3;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"Featured\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:4;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:6:\"iPhone\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:5;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:9:\"WordPress\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:6;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"WPtouch\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:7;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:10:\"earth hour\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:8;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:5:\"fixes\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:9;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"plugins\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:10;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"releases\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:11;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"Updates\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:35:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/?p=5102\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:373:\"WPtouch Plugin Update WPtouch 1.9.23 has been released, and it includes an important security update, 1 new feature and some fixes.

On paper, BraveNewCode is actually about two and a half years old.  Realistically though, it wasn&#8217;t until January of 2009 that Dale and I severed our ties with our other pursuits and started working on BraveNewCode full time &#8211; so a little over two years now.  We did a post in July of last year for our two year anniversary, but given we started full time in January I thought a 2.5 year update would be in order.</p>\n<p>Since then we&#8217;ve accomplished a fair bit.  In terms of free plugins that we actively develop, we have released WPtouch 1.9.x (which just passed 1.5 million downloads), WordTwit, and Earth Hour (which we will be updating shortly).  We have also had the pleasure of helping develop websites for many great clients, including Courtney Summers, Rogers Communications, musician Matthew Good, and many more.  We also released a professional version of WPtouch in June of 2010, and recently released an update to it that added full iPad support.  </p>\n<p>As many people know, Dale and I don&#8217;t live in the same city.  In fact, prior to forming BraveNewCode, we had probably only seen each other in the &#8220;real world&#8221; two or three times, but had enough faith in our vision and our friendship to turn our passions into products, and set off on the adventure that we now call BraveNewCode.</p>\n<p>Right now Dale is in Hamilton, Ontario, and I&#8217;m down in Buenos Aires, Argentina.  I used to live near Vancouver, Canada, but since I can effectively work on BraveNewCode products and services from anywhere with an internet connection, I&#8217;ve decided to change the scenery a bit.  But despite our distance, we still manage to help our customers achieve success and to push the boundaries with all of our plugins.</p>\n<p>This year we have a lot of big plans in store for BraveNewCode, so we want to take this opportunity to thank our fans, our followers, our friends and all of our existing customers who have supported us over the years.  Stay tuned for an announcement regarding a new product of ours, and look for more exciting things to come in the not too distance future.</p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:75:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/02/bravenewcode-turns-two-and-a-half/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1:\"5\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:16;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:74:\"\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n				\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n		\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:5:{s:0:\"\";a:7:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:54:\"In-Depth Podcast Interview About WPtouch, BraveNewCode\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:90:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/01/in-depth-podcast-interview-about-wptouch-bravenewcode/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:99:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2011/01/in-depth-podcast-interview-about-wptouch-bravenewcode/#comments\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Tue, 18 Jan 2011 20:35:59 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:12:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:12:\"BraveNewCode\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"Featured\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:2;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:5:\"Piggy\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:3;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:9:\"WordPress\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:4;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"WordTwit\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:5;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"WPtouch\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:6;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:11:\"WPtouch Pro\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:7;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:5:\"audio\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:8;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:9:\"interview\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:9;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:14:\"james woodcock\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:10;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"plugins\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:11;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:7:\"podcast\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:35:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/?p=4973\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:357:\"Dale recently did an in-depth interview with freelance journalist James Woodcock about all things BraveNewCode, and in particular WPtouch and WPtouch Pro.

As anyone who&#8217;s built a website knows, development and design aren&#8217;t all that cheap, and if you&#8217;re adding a mobile version to it just adds more time, money, and effort to the process. What&#8217;s more, there just weren&#8217;t any good tools available previously to help do so. Many site owners previously didn&#8217;t consider shipping a mobile version for these reasons.</p>\n<p>Being able to install and configure a mobile version <strong>with little to know development time or cost</strong> is a great stop-gap solution for many, and perfectly suitable as a permanent solution for others. WPtouch accomplishes this gracefully.</p>\n<h3>The Wave</h3>\n<p>These people venturing into the mobile arena with regular websites are intrepid explorers; the first wave of small and medium-sized website owners adapting to a space that previously could only be occupied by large companies, or those with the cash/business need to deliver mobile web experiences. Now, there are different tools to harness web traffic viewership that make it easier and more affordable to offer &#8220;tailored for the mobile web&#8221; solutions.</p>\n<h3>The Wave Redux</h3>\n<p>At present, a growing number of those explorers in the mobile web publishing world are growing more savvy, and want more custom mobile solutions that better reflect the style and brand that their desktop sites/services offer.</p>\n<p>As more and more people join the mobile revolution, postered by similar solutions to mobile web presentation of content like WPtouch, this wave of mobile exploration will grow strong, yet not everyone will follow.</p>\n<p>This marks the point of divergence. </p>\n<h3>Two Schools</h3>\n<p>With the rise of social networking services which collect information and serve vast amounts of people, together with the &#8220;app-ification&#8221; of the web ( the tendency for ubiquitous interface styles to serve content), users are increasingly demanding this ubiquity- simple solutions like WPtouch Pro which offer a compromise between customization and ease of use.</p>\n<p>The divergence is created not by the explorers, but rather by their users— much of the feedback we see and hear is often from those who are <em>asking website owners to install WPtouch for them to use to access content.</em> The growing want for a familiar, easy interface is a by-product of the increasing complexity experienced by web users on all web and technology fronts.</p>\n<h3>The High Horsers</h3>\n<p>Conversely, those that advocate and prefer completely custom mobile solutions are either a) in the web industry and are savvy, preferring to distinguish themselves from others and have the skill to do so, or b) have the resources to afford the cost of such development.</p>\n<p>It&#8217;s been our experience that the majority of mobile web <em>users</em> prefer something like WPtouch. That may not be true of website <em>owners</em>, but the demand for WPtouch by visitors says something powerful that you just don&#8217;t see on the desktop.</p>\n<h3>Idealism vs. Reality</h3>\n<p>As a content publisher, it&#8217;s ideal to deliver completely custom mobile solutions- similar design experiences on the desktop + mobile web is really (what seems at first pass) the most natural. But the differences between them are vast, like those between  the workings of quantum and relative mechanics; with time and examination it becomes clear that completely custom mobile experiences might not be the best solution for a great many sites.</p>\n<p>The medium of the internet is heavily influenced by the ways it can be presented. As desktop displays got larger and the tools for web development smarter, the web grew in a way that was directly opposed to the restrictive nature of small mobile devices and the &#8220;information without decoration&#8221; needs of mobile web users (oh, the dreaded WAP).</p>\n<p>Then came the iPhone, and with it an explosion of touch-based smartphones that aimed to put the real web in your pocket.</p>\n<p>But the real web in your pocket just didn&#8217;t feel right. Native apps showed that web content presented and tailored for the device and touch interface proved far more popular than the websites they were culled from.</p>\n<h3>That App-Like Experience</h3>\n<p>That&#8217;s why we chose to go the route of separating the presentation of mobile web content in a user interface from its website&#8217;s presentation, and instead tailor it to the devices it would be viewed on— at current the iOS and Android devices that make up the bulk of the mobile web traffic today.</p>\n<p>These touch devices have interface requirements and interactive interactive prepositions which either do not exist on the desktop or have no corollary. We thought it was more natural that a mobile user, becoming accustomed to the way their mobile device worked and behaved, be presented with a similar interface that they would instantly recognize and understand.</p>\n<p>We worked to match expectations for the behavior of how content + navigation were seen &#038; interacted with. The goal for a user being (when presented with a similar layout on another website) that <em>they would focus less on the layout itself but more on its content.</em></p>\n<h3>Bold-ly Forward</h3>\n<p>Some people think WPtouch should also have backwards, non-touch compatibility on devices like the BlackBerry Bold, Curve, etc. While these devices are still popular in many business environments, they don&#8217;t represent much of the mobile web traffic today, and the direction these browsing statistics are going. What&#8217;s more, the browsers on older, non-touch mobile devices make it quite difficult to offer rich, engaging experiences, dampening the cause to create them.</p>\n<p>That&#8217;s an important distinction: <em>The popularity of mobile devices themeselves in the wild doesn&#8217;t necessarily mean you should invest in web solutions for them;</em> rather, popular mobile devices <strong>which account for the bulk of mobile traffic</strong> should be your concern.</p>\n<p>And in that regard, WPtouch and WPtouch Pro cover well over 90% of that traffic.</p>\n<h3>Philosophy</h3>\n<p>So we look forward to what&#8217;s next, and instead of working with the mobile web today exclusively, we see the future of the mobile web when we consider what we do with the WPtouch/WPtouch Pro plugins. We&#8217;re not prophets and have no crystal ball when it comes to where the mobile revolution might take us all, but we are tuned to the needs of users and content creators, and hope to remain a leader in providing tools for accessing WordPress on the go.</p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:78:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/2010/12/thoughts-on-wptouch-the-mobile-web-2/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1:\"6\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}}}s:27:\"http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom\";a:1:{s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:0:\"\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:3:{s:4:\"href\";s:45:\"http://www.bravenewcode.com/tag/wptouch/feed/\";s:3:\"rel\";s:4:\"self\";s:4:\"type\";s:19:\"application/rss+xml\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:44:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/syndication/\";a:2:{s:12:\"updatePeriod\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:6:\"hourly\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:15:\"updateFrequency\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1:\"1\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}}}}}}}}s:4:\"type\";i:128;s:7:\"headers\";a:13:{s:4:\"date\";s:29:\"Tue,
