Davezilla, funniest site on the net, redesigns and switches to WordPress. Seems a little slow though, might want to check out the Staticize Reloaded plugin.

I changed up the comment styles a bit. Let me know what you think. I had to make a compromise with an extra element. When my audience drops below 20% Internet Explorer I’ll move to a purely generated content solution. (I estimate in about 2006.)

By the way, you may have noticed that the random photo is back to being random again. Every ten minutes one picture will be chosen from the almost nine thousand to grace the header. If you see an interesting one, please click on it and leave a comment.

Image hotlinking protection breaks online aggregators, but bandwidth doesn’t matter anymore so it’s moot.

The three top cities for the WordPress meetup right now are San Francisco, Houston, and Manila (in the Phillipines). Four people have confirmed their attendence at the Borders in San Francisco so far. If only four people come, we’ll still have a blast, but I suspect there will be some surprise guests that should make things very interesting. Saturday at 4 PM, possibly in a city near you. Don’t forget.

The other Matt is looking for the Netscape 2.02 secure site interface. Can anyone help him out?

Simon says “Maybe a friendly UI on top of the custom per-site stylesheet would help though” A fantastic idea.

These Corbis galleries have some beautifully done photos. Worth poking around for portrait ideas, at the very least.

Handy Dandy Guides to MD5 and passwords, in which you can see why we use that method for WordPress. Hat tip: Sushubh.

Matt May, best known to me for his accessibility work and employment at the W3C, appears to have switched to WordPress. Also, congrats on the 5k (which has nothing to do with computers). All he needs now are cooler URIs.

Finished up a Will & Grace mini-marathon and had some great buffalo wings at “BW3” with Kathy, Sarah, and and Kathy’s husband Tom. Great food and company. 🙂

Lisa Williams uses the Dewey Decimal system to categorize her WordPress blog. Krazy.

Fighting for Apple, a nice overview mainly addressing why Michael loves his Mac. I’m the last web-geek I know that doesn’t use a Mac, and the peer pressure is pretty harsh.

WordPressing matters: Fixing Press It for FireFox 0.9, this will of course be in the next release.

I made some much needed cleanups to the URI structure around here. I changed my links, but yours can stay the same. Every previous variation of permalinks all the way back to when I first started with b2 still works, and all serve permanent redirects to the latest and greatest.

Eric Meyer: Elemental Nomenclature. If I had to name everything the same it would stifle my creativity so much I think I’d go back to tables. A better start to this would be instead of looking at the naming scheme of a dozen or so web designers, look at the naming scheme of widely used blog software. Is it worth all that work for such an amazingly small minority of users though? User stylesheets have never taken off, and I seriously doubt they ever will.

Turck MMCache Vs PHP Accelerator. I used to use PHPA and then migrated to MMcache recently, however I had to turn it off because it kept segfaulting when compiling KSES files. However the caching functions and shared memory stuff is really neat.
