Deepest Sender firefox pluggin

01.24.2006 · Posted in Site News, Technology

I have found the Deepest Sender firefox pluggin which claims to be capable of making posts to WordPress. So in order to check it out – I am writing now this post using the pluggin composer :)

I can even see the categories (but unfortunately no tags :( ). I will see what I can do if I will like it :)

Tiger Style Administration for WP2

01.24.2006 · Posted in Site News, Technology

Today I have noticed a nice theme of administration/user area of WP on my brother\’s blog. I was so amazed that I decided to get it for myself. Luckily there is a version for WP2. I really enjoy this there – it is much more comfortable as a default one and it is very easy to install as well (just as any other plugin – drop it to the right place and activate from admin area).

Nice work!

Class::DBI::mysql – even better

01.24.2006 · Posted in Technology

While looking for some cool stuff for Class::DBI on CPAN I found the Class::DBI::mysql. An amazing thing! Since I use MySQL it matches me and it simplifies the job even more. Now I do not need to specify the columns and I use create_table function to create a table for a particular class if it is not there yet which makes the installation even easier – no set up classes or something like this need.

It also provides with enum_vals function which is really cool as well :)
