Remember the Milk Wordpress plugin
December 17 2008
Has anyone developed a Remember the Milk Wordpress plugin?
I’ve had a hunt around and haven’t been able to find anything.
If one was available, would you use it on your blog and what features would you like it to have?
Why are there so few nice Wordpress Christmas themes?
December 17 2008
I’m amazed at how few nice Christmas-related themes there are out there. Is that because it’s such a seasonal thing and people generally don’t switch themes for just a short period of time, or because they prefer to slightly edit their theme to include some aspect of Christmas, or because Christmas is being celebrated less – or something else?
I could only find four which I felt were nice enough to include in this post – have you seen any others? Is there demand for more quality Christmas themes or is it too gimmicky?

Yesterday I made a quick drop by our local supermarket hoping to collect 5 items. The store has recently had a makeover and everything has completely been moved around. Now I’m sure there’s been hours of research and logic into where everything has now been placed but I just wandered around the store feeling frustrated and lost. I was in a hurry and didn’t feel like learning something new. “Eeek.. where’s the salad dressing gone to?” The place looks nicer and seems more organised, but it’ll take me time to get my head around it.
That’s exactly how I first felt when I saw the new dashboard for Wordpress 2.7. “Eeek.. where’s the big “Write” button I’m so used to?” Now, I know how much work has gone into this version of Wordpress, so I’m looking forward to learning the differences.
My next impression: is it just me or does Wordpress 2.7’s new menu remind you of MovableType from years ago with its little menu with icons down the left hand side?
It’s still a little rough around the edges in places with a few rounded buttons looking odd in my Firefox 2 on a Mac:
… but there are some nice changes which will save me time. For example, adding a photo to a post now works on my Mac in the Flash mode so I don’t have to switch to modes each time. The new defaults (no link, full size image) save me time too.
Thanks and credit to the Wordpress team who have listened to our complaints about moving “Categories” and “Tags” from the right sidebar to below the post body and have moved them back, yay!
Welcome to my new look site inspired by warm summer days, fresh growth, my undying love for all things lime flavoured and the beauty of nature.
The new logo uses the gorgeous font Stag from Christian Schwartz which was released earlier this year.
We’ve updated our portfolio to give you a much better glimpse at the type of projects we work on and will continue to update this as sites go live. New Zealand television actress Kimberley Crossman’s new site launches on December 15th their team is just so excited about it, it’s been such a fun Drupal project to work on.
Thanks to all our clients for another fantastic year of creating and working so many interesting different projects. We’ve loved working with you and can’t wait for 2009!
On a personal note, 2008 has been filled with so much joy, thanks to the birth of our first baby, Eli, on 08/08/08 at 08:34am. Here’s a photo of us from last weekend:
