Yep. I’m going nuts with posts today. Trying to make up for the lack of them in the recent weeks. But now that I’ve said that…

There’s been quite a bit of construction here at Saphrym.com.¹

• I’ve installed a few plugins that I’m trying out. Most of it back end stuff. If you’d like to see the ones I have installed, check out my About page.
• I also added a “Blego”² page to feed my own blogger ego.
• I got rid of the direct link to Twitter and replaced it with FriendFeed. I’m loving that service. Lets me keep track of what my friends like and don’t like and also lets me let people know the same thing.³
• I tried Google Ads again for about a day and still can’t stay the way it looks so dropped it.
• Hmmm. What else? Oh yeah, I installed a forum plugin and have my own forums now! The plugin is awesome. It’s called Simple:Press Forum. Check it out if you want your own forums easily integrated into Wordpress. I decided I wanted forums because sometimes there are conversations you want to have with your readers that the comments just don’t work for. And with those forums comes a few other things:
  • I created forums for every topic I discuss on this blog.
  • I’ve opened up registration for blog accounts, and therefore forum accounts, to anyone. Which means I might just finally let a few people guest blog here.
  • I’ve also started asking for advice questions. Check out the Ask Saph topic in the forums.

I think that’s about it other than the stuff you can see in previous posts. So enjoy the new features. I have to go write more posts.
