Turn Your Handwriting Into a Font – for Free!!!

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009

Today I read a review over on Lifehacker of a site that will convert your handwriting into a usable True Type font. Yourfonts.com has a free service that will do this within a matter of minutes.

WordPress 2.7 (Coltrane) Upgrade

Saturday, January 17th, 2009

I was going on almost 8 months without upgrading the WordPress platform and today I finally got around to doing so. I’m glad I waited too… 2.7 seems to be very well thought out and complete overhaul of the dashboard.

Take a look at what they have to say over at WordPress here: http://wordpress.org/development/2008/12/coltrane/ 

I’m also very interested in seeing how the automatic upgrade process works with this system. I’ve installed a number of different instances of the platform manually over the past year, so having that process automated will be really nice.
