Jeffrey’s Twitter Updates for 2008-01-13

  • There was no traffic coming into Manhattan via the Lincoln Tunnel. Amazing for a Saturday night. Perhaps everybody is already here? #
  • Perhaps 8:30 on a Saturday night is still too early for the crowds to come in? #
  • Doing laundry. Then fold and iron. I wonder if I could do ironing consulting? #
  • Just finished starching and ironing a pile of shirts. Phew. #
  • Actually, I do not mind ironing, starching, and even folding shirts with a folding board. The challenge is often to find the time for it. #
  • I just noticed my email announcements and Twitter announcements are once again working with my upgraded WP! #
  • Going to the bookstore. Have been working inside all day. Has gotten cold out. Supposed to snow tonight. #
  • I have jury duty tomorrow, which should be fun in the snow. #
  • @kristiewells Would buy cookies from them if you can ship to #NYC. I can’t find any Girl Scouts here. #
  • Just bought a new French dictionary for the French class at #FIAF I am taking. Somehow feels more serious now I bought a new dictionary. #

WordPress Upgrade, Again

I just upgraded my blog to the latest stable release of WordPress (Version 2.3.2), and updated my theme Royaleto its current version, 1.4, as well. Upgrades like these always seem easier before they actually begin . Strange how they tend to show problems and inconsistencies with other widgets, plug-ins, and the like. WordPress is much easier than MovableType to upgrade, as even with the tweaks and hiccups, I was still able to do it myself and without the need of hiring a developer!

One of the cool features in the current theme is the toggle buttons on the upper right of each post. The posts can be individually toggled opened and closed. This does not effect functionality much outside of printing, but anything to add interactive possibilities (such as to print a post without the sidebars) is a nice feature.
