Delicious Plugin for WordPress

In the same con­text as before (and before that), here’s a plu­gin for del.icio.us and WordPress.

WordPress FeedBurner Plugin

I’m find­ing that plu­g­ins for Word­Press seem to con­stantly pop up into the radar. There are so many use­ful ones it’s hard to keep up with all the installs and setups. Here is another one that I’ll get going eventually.

RSS Menu (helps users add a feed to their aggregator)

quick­Sub is a cool lit­tle JavaScript that makes your RSS feed link come to life with one-click sub­scrip­tion links to the most pop­u­lar aggre­ga­tors. Once your reader places they’re mouse over your XML link they are pre­sented with a ton of choices.

Another ele­ment I’d like to add at some point.

Julian Beever is an Eng­lish artist who’s famous for his art on the pave­ment of Eng­land, France, Ger­many, USA, Aus­tralia and Bel­gium. Beever gives to his draw­ing an anamor­phose, his images are drawn com­pletly deformed which give a 3D image when view­ing on the right angle.

Paper Table

Paper Table

It’s this kind of design that makes you say “wow” out­loud, even though there is no one else around to hear you. See the Matt Gagnon Stu­dio for more.

Some­thing about Matt Gagnon’s work is just inde­fin­ably right. He seems to have a pen­chant for design feng shui; an innate sense of the alchemy of form and mate­r­ial. What­ever it is, Matt Gagnon’s pieces are strik­ing, ele­gant and original.

The Motorola Franklin (RAZRberry)

RAZRberry

When the Motorola Razr came out I was tempted to get my first cell­phone. As cool as that phone was, I now have some­thing far bet­ter to drool over. I know that it’s going to be really tough to resist when this baby comes out. I had fig­ured that I would finally get a cell­phone when the PDA inte­gra­tion was com­plete. That time has prob­a­bly come, all that’s left is that pesky issue of price. I think that in Canada, the Razr is still around $500. That fact seems to be the only thing which is forc­ing me to stay off the whole cell­phone band­wagon for now. Cool stuff is expen­sive, who would have thought?

Last we heard, Motorola was work­ing on a Blackberry-killer type qwerty can­dy­bar that was going to be done in the style of the RAZR, which some were refer­ring to as RAZR­berry. Well, we’ve got the exclu­sive for ya: the device is code­named the Franklin, and will have quad-band GPRS/EDGE, 128MB flash and 64MB RAM mem­ory, Blue­tooth, a 1.3-megapixel cam­era, Min­iSD slot, 2.4-inch 320 x 240 65k color screen, and will appar­ently run Win­dows Mobile 5.0. Oh, and did we men­tion it’s freak­ing 112 x 64 x 11.5mm (4.4 x 2.5 x 0.45-inches) and won’t weigh more than 115g (4oz)? So this is what it feels like to be in love.
