    Love the way fouad.fm talks about the meetup-to-be … “This should be very interesting and geeky”

    Lucky! I wish I could be there. Have fun!

    Uh oh. I think you just broke the law. :-)

    Dubai’s ruler has ordered the cancellation of all New Year’s celebrations in the freewheeling Gulf city state because of the violence in Gaza.

    Emirates news agency WAM said Tuesday that Sheik Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum called off “all forms of celebrations” but did not elaborate.

      Luckily the law was vague and most stuff wasn’t canceled.

    Dude, that video player is hot! Is that part of 2.7, or is it a plugin?

      It’s the WordPress.com video player, just upload a video to WP.com and you get that.

        What if you self host your site does this mean we cannot used that player… it so rocks

        Thanks in advance

      • Matt — January 12, 2009 @ 7:11 pm

        You can self-host but still upload your videos to WordPress.com.

    Loving WP2.7 I had not used it since like 2005 or so. Quick and easy question. Making another WP2.7 blog for my hd video production firm and want to know what plugin you used to put this video in your post… I searched but cant seem to find a good hd video poster.
