Taking Wordpress for a spin
Submitted by admin on Wednesday, 26 September 20072 Comments
I’ve been working on my own 3 column template for my Wordpress Blog. The systematic deconstruction of my old Blog The IT Managers Journal and subsequent building on my new Blog (www.jasonslater.co.uk) I am finding surprisingly therapeutic. A number of things that I’d left or pencilled for sorting out at a future date are all going under the [[microscope]]. I have been looking through the available Widgets for Wordpress but there are so many that for a noob like me there are probably too many. It would be great to have a section of ‘recommended widgets for noobies’.
