Spider Bites. I got bitten by a spider but I’m not sure what kind. Luckily not one of the ones described on thta page.

The Scripty Goddess has her first plugin up. With a simple tweak she could shave a step. I’m really digging the new WordPress plugin system. First of many to come from her? Bing!

Phil checks out MT license. Aren’t most software licenses similarly gross and nasty? I suspect most of this was from a template of some sort. I read a Microsoft EULA once and had nightmares for weeks. The GPL isn’t bad.

Dinah discovers our secret plan for world domination. She must be taken care of now. We can’t let this get around.

Joel on Software – Fire And Motion. While I was reading this I was interrupted 7 times. Wasn’t this in Office Space first? “In a week, I’d say I do about 15 minutes of real, actual work.” Any tips for making those minutes come more frequently? Hat tip: I can’t remember.

Move away from MovableType? Jon Hicks, a designer I respect a great deal, contemplates WordPress.

Super Scripty Goddesses choose WordPress. Can’t wait to see the cool stuff Jennifer comes up with.
