Essential WordPress plugins

July 21, 2008 Stephanie Leary 33 Comments

I've set up a lot of new WordPress sites lately, and I've come up with my own homebrew installation package.

Overheard

July 13, 2008 Stephanie Leary 2 Comments

We were in the mood for hamburgers tonight, so we went to a little joint where they have half a dozen booths ranged around a long bar. It's built-in entertainment: you, the sit-down diner, get to listen to the conversations of the beer-and-wings diners. Our bar guys tonight were … [Read more...] about Overheard
