Six Apart Musings
Adam Kalsey writes Six Apart Musings. He won’t be porting his plugins to PHP. He has looked at WordPress, but if he moves to anything it’ll be more a full CMS. Adam is someone I’ll need to remember to mail when 1.3 is out. I like the Big Titles on his permalink pages. Hat tip: Phil.
Misconception
Just to clear up a common misconception, I am in fact not the famous rapper Jay-Z. If you write a letter to him in my comments it won’t get there. Leaving your phone number, however, reflects an optimism about the web I miss.

Dynamic Plugins
I think this post is overly negative but he brings up a good point about existing MT Perl plugins not working on dynamic pages (the #1 feature in 3.1). I can’t think of any possible way around this though, except rewriting the plugins. Perhaps the Smarty handler could pass unrecognized tags through a Perl shell script and grab the output.
