In Dallas
I’m going to be in Dallas this weekend for a wedding, any suggestions for things to do when I’m in town, besides avoiding melting from the TX heat?
Walden 3
Jason on doing what you love and loving what you do. I often disagree with Calacanis, but when he’s right he’s spot on.

Podcast Interview
At Gnomedex John Furrier interviewed me and the results are now online, John was a lot of fun to chat with. I hope we do it again sometime. PodTech.net is one of my favorite podcast sites.

Forbes.com Best of Web
WordPress wins Forbes.com Best of Web and Favorite award for blog tools! “In February, open source blogging application WordPress came out with its release 1.5, and we’ve found that this release puts WordPress squarely ahead of its competition.” Our number of downloads has more than doubled since that was written. Hat tip: Niall Kennedy.
Weblog Wannabe
Weblog Wannabe is switching to WordPress. The site has won several Bloggies, usually for design.
Mosaic Photography
The famous Mosaic jazz label has some amazing photography for sale though it seems a bit pricey. They do have some smaller Francis Wolff prints for $75 though.
On Podcasting
More love from Apple.com: “IMHO WordPress is the best single user blogging system available (did I mention its free?) […] I came accross this really simple tutorial on how to use WordPress as a podcasting engine … take a look at it. What is so amazing is how easy it really is! Before you know it, you’ll have thousands of listeners, be listed in the iTunes 4.9 Podcasting Directory, and be a media darling.” We’re turning the media darling thing into a plugin in 1.6. Hat tip: Pete Quily.
EMIC Clusters
Has anyone used any of EMIC’s cluster systems? I hate it when websites make you contact them to get any useful information. Defeats the purpose of the web.
Ryan in SF
WordPress Ryan is coming to town so let’s show him a good time with a WP meetup. I’ll be hosting an after-party at my place.
Sort WP with Greasemonkey
Greasemonkey has gotten a bit of bad hype lately, but it’s still incredibly useful and relevant. Check out this user script that allows you to sort table rows in WordPress using Greasemonkey. BTW, a better sorting algo should be able to deal with no leading zeroes on rows.
