  Wow, even he uses WP, good on him. Although he needs to upgrade since he is using WP 2.0.5.

  I built one of the first sites for Prince and Paisley Park back in 95-96 and they stiffed us for about $25k so going with freeware seems quite appropriate

  Am I the only one finding the text talk (in an official website nonetheless) annoying?

  w00kie: Yeah, but that’s been Prince’s style for years… most of the liner notes for his CDs (including lyrics for his songs) are done up that way.

  you mean like: “beautiful nrg emanating from crowd and per4mers”

  Yeah, just a bit. I bet they just have some sort of generator to replace those certain words. to = 2, because = becuz, tonight = 2nite. It is quite annoying.

  Maybe there should be a WordPress plugin that will generate “text talk” … like there is for Pirate Day. Or does one already exist …

  There really is a plugin that will transform your perfectly understandable, nicely spell-checked text to leet speak—though why any sane person over age 13 would want to do this is beyond me. (Now, the pirate text—that’s another story.)

  Details are here: http://codein.at/projects/1337-leetspeak-wordpress-plugin/

  That’s nice, but someone needs to learn to spell…
