WordPress as a Data Collection Tool
A few weeks ago (actually, I think it’s more like months at this point), I blogged about publishing my first plugin on the WordPress Repository. I thought I’d take a moment to write about what that plugin is — and the projects I’ve been working on that inspired it.

Packaging A Domain of One’s Own
I’m REALLY excited about an idea I had yesterday that, thanks to the previous work of my colleague Tim Owens and his assistance today, I think we may be able to realize as part of A Domain of One’s Own.
